This is a famous photo of Rollie Free breaking the 150-mph mark on a Black Lightning in 1948:

Great link Gromits.
The only Shadow I ever saw in person, outside a museum, was at Laconia about 1971.
It was being ridden by a girl with red hair and black leather (with no silver findings) from head to toe.
Just under 6’, maybe 160 lbs and at least 20 years worth of fantasy fuel.
