Great photos, as usual!  I'm thinkin' these photos were from the years that my Mom, Ruth Ely, and I were going to Wall on a regular basis in the 60s.  Looks like Tommie Elliott in Matty McMann's #5 in the wall with the #97.  Photo #2 shows Tommie Elliott in Don House's XL-1 on the outside of Jack Ely's #1 (no relation).  Photo #3 has Dave Hulse in Woody Johnson's #68 on the inside of Joe Kelly in Dick Barney's #14.  I'm guessing that Kelly is passing Hulse as Barney's sharp looking 3 window coupe with an injected Olds V-8 was a rocket ship and was nearly unbeatable.  Photo #5 is again of Dave Hulse in his own #5.  Dave was my Mom's favorite at Wall as he was from her original home town of Point Pleasant Beach, NJ.  Scott Ely
