I found the source of the Safari / Firefox compatibility issue. It was a bit of incomplete code, whereas IE did not require the code to be complete to be XHTML 4.01 loose transitional Safari and Firefox do. So I am in the process of fixing it. As of the date of this post I have completed section 1900-1945. But..... I have a long ways to go. I am also in the process of cleaning up the webpages and making them look a bit more professional as well. I still have a bit more material almost ready to add. Of course I keep finding more, as I do I'll keep posting it! (Section 1946-1959 now updated as well.........)

As of the date of this entry I have just completed preparing 110 pages of material to add to this website. Included will be some very nice brochures and advertisements, many for well known manufacturers like Chenango, Apache, Nimrod, and Heilite. It will be one of my largest deployments yet, and will require several days/weeks to complete. Much of the material comes from the early 1960's and is in color.

This website was established on January 19, 2009. Throughout 2009 most effort was put into further research and much document scanning, document preparation, and document deployment. Just getting one single manufacturer brochure or advertisement deployed to the website is very time-consuming, and this website has hundreds. Because almost all effort was placed on website content the quality of the presentation has been lacking. To those of you who are using Safari my apologies. Some of this website's coding is incompatible with the Safari browser. I will strive to fix that in 2010 along with other presentation issues encountered.
