    This is my grandfather, Bumper as we called him, standing next to his auto with the beloved canoe atop. Bumper was a Game Warden in MA from the 1930s-1950s and he rarely went anywhere without his Old Town guide canoe. It is canvas and mahogany, 17 feet in length and he handled it like it barely had any weight. I guess I know more about the canoe than I do the car. (I still have the canoe!)
    Don't know much about the car but would love to if anyone wants to chime in. Thanks
