An old photo of "The Firebird"

My dad came across this photo and gave it to me.  Unfortunately it isn't super clear and it got worse when I scanned it, but it shows the 1962 Red Wood Dale 18".  The photo was actually of the chickens but luckily the grill photo-bombed it.  Written on the back is "Early Spring 1974"




I don't know if Brian still has this grill but I have attached a link to the original story.
