Your emails are wonderful and most interesting to me as an automobile enthusist and auto collector as well as a resident of Garden City where I traveled as a child much of the original Vanderbilt parkway. I even owned a 1922 Marmon Speedster which ran in the 50th anniversary of the 1908 race at Roosevelt Raceway and one other commemorative race run by Austin Clark. Please keep them coming. One thing which is confusing to me which I would appreciate your clarifying. In each email you list the various subjects that you are covering. However when you click to these there are usually listed in addition numerous additional subjects. Are these additional subjects new to the email or items that have been sent before? If they are new, then your email would contain HUNDREDS of new items???Thanks for your response. Richard
