Millers Falls micrometer

 Although I can't find the model number on the device a quick Google seems to indicate that it's a 940S, produced in a simplified form during World War II. Apparently it's a rebranded Goodell Pratt unit, as Millers Falls had acquired the company in 1931. 

Nice summer car

190 SL for those who didn't want the 300 SL.. 

 Put on the cruising music, and get on the road...

 The B-26 "Flak Bait" leads a group of B-26s over Magdeburg, Germany on its 200th mission.

The 60 H.P. Spyker Racer, 1903.

  The world’s first four-wheel drive car, built in the Netherlands. It was called the 3 firsts, first 6 cylinder engine, first with 4 wheel brakes and the aforementioned 4 wheel drive. It was completed too late for the 1903 race, but shown at the Crystal Palace. It was raced only twice in 1904, where it finished 3rd and in 1st place. 

Looking for period pictures of this car.
