Awesome Posters Chat 11/11/13

Post by Go Go Diablo » Mon Nov 11, 2013 10:08 pm

Hi All,

I got this original Bolens Poster a while back and finally had it laminated so I could proudly show it off without worrying about getting it dirty. This is an original dealer poster. If you look closely at the Diablo, you can see it was the proto-type Diablo before they made the actual production Diablo 500 in 1967.

What I like best about this picture is the look on the guys face sitting on the back of the ski seater. That's how I look whenever I'm passing up a Hus Ski on the trail!

Anybody else have some posters or need memorabilia they can share with us?

Truth be told Frank, I can't remember the last time I passed a Hus Ski on the trail. But you can bet I'm still smiling while driving the Diablo around.

Looking forward to seeing some posters from others.

Barrie,

I thought I remember Ed Machisoc telling us this family was actually one of the engineers at Hus Ski. Do you remember that conversation?

Still hoping to see some other posters ya all.......

Ok, so some of my friends are computer challenged. And I see Devil Dog has a hard time telling a good time from a drunkin time.

Double D sent me this photo. Everyone loves a little sex-appeal.

I know Ed MacHosic was in on the development of many machines since he was the one of the very first employees of HUS-SKI ltd. I do not know if he was an actual engineer or just very familiar with the design of these machines.
