Description: Stunning original 1959 BSA motorcycle photograph 8 x 10 it is an original AMA press photographs showing the great slindin' Al Gunter, A genius on and off the racetrack, the practical genius of motorcycle racing. Useful, workable innovations poured from him-the "blend" valve seats that are only now trendy, billet pistons, hardened and cut tires for dirt-track, magnesium disc wheels, raised-and-filled ports, chassis innovations. He pushed the idea of a full-face helmet to Bell and wore a helmet radio so his pit crew could keep him informed—until the AMA made him stop using it. Gunter's mind was always far ahead of his hands, and he could fixate on a project hard enough to miss races. He was the U.S.'s answer to Ireland's Rex McCandless, designer of the Norton "Featherbed" chassis-a prolific creator of technologies who quit school early and educated himself for the rest of his life. This is an original period press photograph in very good condition.
