Chester Gould, the author, lived in near by Woodstock, IL. I don't know
the Guzzi reasoning. They were fast becoming the #1 police bike in the
early 70s and also featured in the Dirty Harry movie though Harry rode a
Guzzized Triumph. Dick Tracy was Chicago based and I'm not sure if
Chicago had Guzzi cop bikes then.
I hope you guys appreciate what I went through to get this stuff. I
actually joined a Dick Tracy email group to find this stuff! They are in
way more need of a life than we are!!
I just remember the DT comic Frank put in the newsletter years back and
tried to work from there.
