Drop-In Guest: 1958
Oakland circa 1958, and yet another motoring mishap. The clipboard reads CECIL PRICE, OPD. 4x5 acetate negative from the News Archive. View full size.
Classic Side Arm

As a motorcycle enthusiast of many years I have had a few harrowing moments. This would go in the "one heck of a ride" column. I wonder if the rider had anything to do with the marks on the window frame by the S watermark.
I also noticed the lack of equipment hanging from the policeman's belt as compared to today's gear-laden officers.
Just doing my duty, sir
"Never mind the excuses, I'm writing you a parking ticket."
Aww, and in the high-rent district, too!
This is why Hogs never caught on for motocross.
The Honest Truth
"I swear, officer -- that house came right outta NOWHERE. No signals or nothin'!"
