In the late '50's, early '60's, I was skiing on some Hart Standards

I think those Hart Standards were actually Heads ?

Then again, I might be mistaken.

Naahhh, they were Harts. First Harts had the black top just like Head
and the name "Hart" was a bit of chromed metal tacked onto the tip
instead of engraved into the plastic like the Heads were. I'm pretty
sure the original Harts were called Standards too.

Now, quiz for the day. Hart was the first name of
one of the two brothers who headed the company of
that name. What was the other brother's name and
what was their last name.

Was it Harry? Horst Abraham credits Harry Holmgren with introduction
of some new model of Hart skis.

I would be interested in seeing a picture of the boot toe piece if it
wouldn't be too much trouble. I will try to scare up a camera to some pics
on the web as well. By the way the cable is marked "Anderson & Thompson
Seattle Washington".

Thanks again

We already had a winner in Sven Golly who correctly
noted that it was Hartvig and Harry Holmberg from
Minnesota who introduced Hart skis.

So, here is your next quiz.

In John Jay ski film posters used even until a couple
of years ago, there is a picture of John holding a
pair of Hart skis. What model is he holding?

Not familiar with Jay films or posters. Would it be Hart's
most-pictured ski, the Javelin?

And a gold star to Kneale!!!

John Jay was cool. He always accompanied his films
and live-narrated them at showings. Not unlike
early Warren Miller. Except he kept doing it until
he was 84 (or so I'm told) Apparently you can get his
films on tape.
