Gar Wood 10 Miss Americas Poster
While spectators gathered in boats and ashore, Garfield “Gar” Arthur Wood and his mechanic, Orlin Johnson, raced Miss America X in the Harmsworth Trophy Race held in Marine City in September 1933. They won the race against Englishman Hubert Scott-Paine’s Miss Britain III. Miss America had four powerful 12-cylinder Packard engines, plus a supercharger that produced 6,800 horsepower. She won the 1932 and 1933 Harmsworth race and set a longstanding world record of 124 mph in a timed straightaway. Between 1920 and 1933, Wood won the Harmsworth race eight times as a driver and nine times as an owner. Besides being famous for being the world’s fastest boat racer, Wood was a wealthy industrialist who made his fortune by inventing the hydraulic dump truck lift. He became the first man to go 100 miles an hour on water, and the first to do two miles a minute in a boat. Miss America X was designed by Napoleon "Nap" Lisee. Mr. Lisee is credited with designing more than 30 of the world's finest race boats, including all ten Miss Americas, all of the Miss Detroits, all of the Baby Gars, Baby Americas, and Gar Jr. boats.

I was so amazed at how this all turned out. Everyone who attended the funeral was in awe of how beautiful it was made.
And I owe it all to Zazzle. I wouldn’t have done it better myself not to mention I wouldnt have time to do it.
The great part of it all was they had templates that was catered to my needs and that I could use it in ways I wanted to use to resize it my way. It took some time but I was happy it turned out great. I did 100 photos, 89, 66 photos (I think) lol templates.
The only suggestion is that the templates, before sending through would tell you of errors like; saying please revise or resize it again for any photos that is not perfectly well sitting or not show it’s cutting off some of them and where it tells you there’s duplicates.
Staring, placing and resizing all 100 + pictures into the template can be tiresome and overwhelming and it makes my eyes blurred that I can’t tell if they’re cutting off or overlapping or duplicates.
Overall I am very pleased and will be using Zazzle again should the need arises.
Thank you Zazzle.
Altogether I’ve done 3 collages 1 profile picture and couple pictures with 1 frame and yet this is my first time ordering as a 1 time customer.
Prices were very reasonable and accommodating to my finances.

Fun bright artwork that really captures the mood I’m going for! Pop art with cyberpunk energy. A little sweet but also spicy. This art is the perfect size and vibe for our art gallery wall. The printing looks great, high quality with vibrant colors! I went with the semi-gloss finish, which adds a little extra shine and thickness to the print making it excellent for high-traffic areas like the staircase wall.
