What caught my eye is the barrels with the Aeronca brochure in full color printed on them, with the twin tailed Chum! ... how in the world.....and the Chief is beautiful too!

Good eyes Mark.

I noticed the drum and completely missed the Chum.

Very sharp, Mark. I sure hope the story of the Chum on the Barrel gets more explanation. It is a real natural evolution of this thread.
