Following the dramatic sales performance of the 1933 Plymouth in which it had captured one quarter of the new car market, it would have been simple for Walter Chrysler to sit back and rest on his laurels. Not so - for 1934 Chrysler would market a new car, one which would feature more luxury items of the "high priced" class than the competitors in the low-priced field. Included among the list of items the new car would boast was independent front suspension along with Plymouth's familiar all steel body, hydraulic brakes and countless other features.
Shortly after the one millionth car was completed the car was taken to Chicago and put on display at the Century of Progress Exposition. Upon hearing the news of the one millionth car, Mrs. Ethel Miller of Turlock, California wired Walter P. Chrysler. She asked if she could purchase this car, as she had been the purchaser of the very first Plymouth built. Mr. Chrysler advised her she could buy the car and Mrs. Miller drove her '28 coupe to Chicago where she took delivery of the '34 PE four door sedan. The '28 was then placed on display at the Exposition. Upon taking delivery of the car Mrs. Miller asked Chrysler if he would reserve the second millionth car for her when it was built. She took delivery of that car in 1937! In only six years Plymouth had built one million cars. It had taken Henry Ford twelve years to build a million cars and Chevrolet nine years.

Union Pacific passenger special with 18 cars and UP 1616 and 2nd unit UP 5484, PRFOG-24 runs slow for the UPRR photographers and friends on this most monumental occasion just before entering the cut at Bootlegger Canyon in Arches Nation Park. A beautiful UP Streamliner visits one of the most beautiful places on Earth; perhaps one of the best images of this long fabled train since its original inception in 1934. A blessing by any other name for me to have the opportunity to shoot this all most important historic move to Potash, Utah on September 24, 2025.

At the Hirshhorn (10/29/2016). The work features a single, sequin-clad woman strumming an E-minor chord endlessly, rotating on a pedestal in a gold-tinseled room, a performance that walks a characteristic line between kitsch and earnest commentary on feminine objectification. A rotating cast of Washington-area musicians will play the "Woman."
Debajit Biswas performs on the classical Indian guitar, the sarod, with the dummer Amit Kavthekar on the tabla.
Panaracer 27.5" x 3.5" tires, mounted onto a 6-year old Velocity Blunt wheelset. I only had 1 bike that the wheelset and tire combo would fit into: a Performance Bikes 29" alloy frame with a Karate Monkey fork.
My plan is to build up a B+ wheelset with wider rims, then move the tires onto that wheelset and put it into my wife's fat bike... or my Vertigo when she isn't using it :)
