Title: Tad Burness drawings on eBay
Post by: Gordie on April 29, 2013, 07:56:41 PM

Many of you remember Tad Burness as the guy who used to draw pictures of old cars and write a little history of them and they appeared in the Sunday newspapers usually near the comic page.  Tad did a few Kaisers and  Frazers over the years and he recently passed away.  Now his original pen and ink drawings are being sold on eBay.  I was lucky enough to get the 1947 Frazer and 1952 Kaiser Manhattan and I am very pleased with them.  They came mounted and matted so all I have to do is get some frames.  The mat sizes are 13" x 13 1/2".  There are still many makes and models available but I did not see any other K-F vehicles.  I also got a 1934 Chrysler Airflow as I have a weakness for Airflows too.  The company selling them is "Forgotten Treasures" in Burnsville NC.  if you would like to see what is available.

I don't  know how to do links but the item number on one of the items was 160735416309 and the sellers name is treasurezz and it was under Kaiser Frazer items.  Hit "see other items" after you get on the auction. You may want to contact the seller to see if they have more of these drawings that were not on the first auctions.
