Re: Photo of GG-1 #4800, a.k.a. "Mr. Rivets" in Bi-Centennial paint near 30th Street, Philadelphia ...
Geez, G.E.C., I wish I did! This is it as "Rivets" wasn't there on my way out of the city (although I was out on the rear vestibule of the last car with my camera, alas, it had gone off somewhere.) And the photo I posted here had hung on the wall in my office at Sperry Corp, absorbing sun and flourescent light for at least five, maybe six years and has faded noticeably! I'll have to dig through my 12 slide storage boxes (someday) to find the slide and have another print made. [The image I posted is a digital photograph of a photographic print.]
When (if) I ever get around to having another print made, I'll get two prints and send you the other one.

This is one of a few photos of that side of that GG1! seriously, all my books show the other side (you can tell by the little F which end is front). Have anymore?
