Harley Davidson's Historian Martin Jack has passed on.

It is with profound grief that I regret to inform all of you that our good friend Martin Jack Rosenbloom aka Harley-Davidson's Historian Emeritus has passed on. He was just shy of 68.

Marty was a good family man and dear friend with a wealth of information and knowledge. He retired several years ago from Harley but before doing so, he was instrumental in the opening of the Harley Davidson museum.

Many documentaries featuring Harley-Davidson would not be complete without an interview with Martin Jack Rosenblum.

He will be sadly missed,

RS

I had the pleasure of working with him years back when I donated a bunch of memorobilia from my Dad's drag racing days. He was a pleasure to deal with.

RIP!

I was just wondering about about him a few days ago, since I hadn't heard anything about him for the last few years. Usta read his stuff back in the day.
