the front end always confused me looking at this. It is NOT a Fox Duke. They had a tube front axle and the seat side plates were in a wedge shape not rectangular.

Ok so sometimes I'm wrong. This is the picture i was thinking of but it is not a Fox Duke. It does have a fox rear wheel but the front is all wrong. Still a cool picture from 1960. Norman Ball of Bartonville, Il. handing the trophy to Gina Altman in Germantown Hills Il.
