I do urge listmembers to click on the site for Morris and Essex
history...it talks a lot about the Shepherd entries, and there is a
picture of von Stephanitz with his winners from when he judged in 1930
--- wonder who they were, those dogs and those handlers (both women,
donchaknow)...... it tells about having one day for Shepherds and the
rest of the show the next day............remember, all, M&E was not open
to all breeds............. and there's a picture of the car Helen
talks about in her post......(doesn't call it a hearse, calls it a
touring car...but it sure looks like a hearse to me)...........
Worth the time to click and read..........
