Built by Alan Olson, the model is a solid plaster casting from David
Roberts, West Palm Beach, Fla. painted with Humbrol paints; silver and
a custom mix of 'Greyhound' blue. The lettering was hand drawn on decal
paper with the same blue paint. The dog logo was hand drawn over a many-times
reduced photocopy of a broadside photo. Winner of the Bus & Coach
