    If they left your 1921 in that fire for 40 years, it would be a lot larger than a pancake.

    No wonder they call it a sweat shop.

    With this picture it is now possible to see how an 1881 Morgan is made in China.

    Strange I thought:

    How Morgans Are Made



    Mr. Morgan met up with Mrs. Morgan and 9 months later a little Morgan appears.


    And that my dear, is how Morgans are made

    Actually it was technically born the day George met a schoolteacher named Anna Williams ;)

    This is the only known color photo from that time period of 1881. The inventor died shortly afterwards, taking the process with him and it was many, many years later before the color photo process would be invented again. Of course, the digital part was from scanning the photo.

    True story. ;) ;) :)
