Provenance: This photograph came out of the estate of Harry and Signe Molenaar. They owned and operated Molenaar Motorcycles from 1933 to 1991 as a Harley Davidson Dealership and 1992 to 1998 as a motorcycle shop and parts supplier. Located in Hammond, Indiana, it was one of the oldest continuing running Harley dealers in the country. Harry raced motorcycles from the early 1920's to the 1960's. Harry and Signe also built and operated the Illiana speedway from 1945 to 1999. This famous track (formerly named Schereville Speedway) was home to many American Automobile and Motorcycle Racing Legends. This track along with their Harley dealership, was their passion - motorcycles and racing! Harry and Signe also donated their time and sponsored and hosted many local and national charity functions. For his devotion to these endeavors Harry was awarded, in 1999, the State of Indiana's highest honor "Sagamore of Wabasha."
