Actually, there's an innocent reason that Bob isn't reflected in the
article photos. Like the true individual that he is, he was often driving
on his own, away from the pack.  He actually *does* show up in the line-up
shot that leads the article, but the photo was clipped to fit the page.
(Bob was at the back of the line.)  The original shot showed 11 vans in a
row, while the cropped version only showed 7 vans.  Eddie Hintz, Jack
Stafford, the Kanes, and Bob were cropped out.
