I’m sure the proper period tank could have been found just across the bay in the Jacques Littlefield collection at the Pony Tracks Ranch in Portola Valley. I have been up there many times since my first visit in 1998. So glad they were able to keep the collection together and continue the restorations after his death in 2009.

When I hear Ernest Hemingway and the Spanish Civil War I think of Gary Cooper, Ingrid Bergman and Katina Paxinou in For Whom the Bell Tolls.
