[PHOTOGRAPHY]. Scrapbook of Original Snapshots and Publicity Photos of the Motorcycle-Riding Dogs, “Fetchie’’ and “Fetchet” and Their Owner, Gil Tomes. [Redlands, Ca. 1970s-80s]. Scrapbook includes 66 color snapshots of the dogs (and some other dogs) and Tomes on motorcycles with helmets or other clothes (snapshots approximately 3 ½ x 4 ¼”) and 15 black and white press or publicity photos of the dogs and Tomes (mainly taken for newspapers or other publications - approximately 10 x 6 ½” and 5 x 7”). Some toning to color snapshots, light rubbing to black and white photos. Fine. All held in a near contemporary 3-ring notebook, either loose or in plastic sleeves. With newspaper clippings. “Fetchie attracts attention wherever he goes, morning, noon or night. If he were to go unnoticed, that would be a surprise. Why? well, how many five-year-old cocker-dachsunds will you see riding a motorcycle with their owners?” (Sun City News, September 28, 1978).
