Looking for Charlie Blosser’s Race Car

The airplane is a 1928 Lincoln Page manufactured by Roos and fitted with a Wright Curtiss OX5 engine. Not really our cup of tea, but we are truly interested in the aviator. His name is Charlie Blosser and he's seen here flying this plane at the age of eighty! Charlie was certainly an interesting figure, who took up flying at an early age and owned the Blosser Airport in Concordia, Kansas. Apart from flying he was also active in auto racing in the 1920s and 1930s, He won the race at the Belleville High Banks in 1924, but apart from this fact very little is known about that side of Charlie's life. Also he seldom, if ever, let anyone take photos of him. Despite this setback the High Banks Hall of Fame Museum at Belleville, Kansas is searching for pictures of Charlie Blosser together with his race car to put on a plaque at the museum. We know it's a long shot, but who knows, maybe someone can help.
