Default Baldwin Motion articles, memorabilia & stories

We lost an icon last year with the unfortunate passing of Joel Rosen. Lots of respect was paid to the legendary “Mr. Motion” at that time. The Baldwin Motion story has been well told and best chronicled by Martyn Schorr. His personal items have moved on to other care takers. Therefore, I’ve decided to share photos and information of my personal collection so articles, memorabilia and stories don’t get lost to time. Or, in my case, a tote buried in my attic. Please utilize this thread as a place to share your articles, memorabilia and stories as well.

My understanding is that when Joel needed Ford parts he ordered directly from Shelby. Walked across the street to a pay phone and called in his order. But, when Shelby figured out who the orders were for, it was no longer allowed. I believe the story goes something like that.
