An addition to this thread. The original mounted photo for the postcard with Oldfield driving, which was owned by Cobb. (9" x 11" mount, 6" x 8" photo)

Thanks Ryan!
And thanks for sharing that George, I didn't know that was the origin of that nickname for Walter. My dad tells me that my grandfather also used to call my uncle and him Barney back when they first started driving. Quote:

What a great thread, just what makes this forum so cool. (Apart from Leon, of course!) Fabulous pieces, Jeff and Bryan. Johnson was tagged "The Big Train" in 1915 by an obscure D.C. sportswriter named Stanley Milliken.

I don't know why, but I always assumed that Barney was a nickname from Walter's younger days. Fun that he picked it up mid-career and it stuck!
