Forestville Muffler Man.

Muffler Man

Here's our guy at the River Bend Resort at Hilton, downriver from Forestville, CA. Notice that the cutie in the photo is the same one pictured in the 1965 Historical Sighting and that the paddle has been replaced since the previous sighting.

Muffler Man

This Muffler Man is genuine-right palm up, left palm down. He has been repainted as a lumberjack, or a Paul Bunyan. However, his axe has been taken away, and so, since he is placed in a trailerpark called "Riverbend", a canoe paddle has replaced the axe.

Muffler Man

Muffler man! He's holding a big paddle for a canoe, he has a little hat on his head, a bright red shirt on and you can't miss him! That is, of course, if you can find the little RV park that he's in. I'm positive that he's a muffler man, I know because of the article in the Smithsonian magazine, pretty interesting I must say!
