Entrepreneur Charles Alexander ÒC. A.Ó Bradley (1864-1940) was one of 13 children of John Martin Bradley. As enterprising as he was industrious, C. A. sold real estate, developed land, served as president of a bank, and completed two terms as mayor of Longmont, Colorado, before devoting himself to his oil wells in Texas and California. Through it all he witnessed some of the most significant events of the early 20th centuryÑthe growth of AmericaÕs oil industry, World War I, the Spanish flu pandemic, and The Great Depression.

C. A. Bradley was a man who settled for nothing less than the best, and the automobiles he drove were some of the finest machines of their day: Pope-Toledo, Pierce-Arrow, Locomobile, Franklin, Jordan Playboy, Stutz. In 1911 he completed an ambitious 4400-mile tour of Europe in his new Pierce-Arrow, which accompanied him on the steamship from Boston to Italy. The journal he kept of that trip has been preserved along with photos of the Pierce stopped at popular spots along the route from Italy to Ireland.

Over 100 photographs, including C. A.Õs cars from 1905 to 1929, have been selected for this story of a remarkable self-made man and the times in which he lived. The authors have documented their great-grandfatherÕs life through news articles, diaries, letters, and family accounts. The genealogy section of the book contains information on the ancestors and descendants of C. A.Õs father, John Martin Bradley.

Buy This!
Size: Medium 16in x 1in
Super heavy duty! Not only does the magnet hold a ton, the strap is totally adjustable to hold wide items. Currently it's holding an 8 ish lb rope on the side of my garage fridge with zero issue! Easy to use and works great!

"Keep On Holding On" assist.
Size: Medium 16in x 1in
Magnet is powerful indeed . The velcro strap is quite long and I have not figured out how to shorten it without cutting it. Great for hoses, ropes, and pull alongs. Temporary use as hold down in a truck bed for lite items.

Nice product with lots of uses. Strong magnet and great strap
Size: Medium 16in x 1in
Used this to replace the Klein magnetic strap on my C-800 multimeter. (This is not easy and takes a lot of manipulation, but if you can get it in the plastic loop on the multimeter up past where the loop in the strap end is sewn, you can use a screwdriver through that to yank it the rest of the way). Once it’s done it’s beautiful! This thing could hold 2 dozen multimeters and it’s MUCH longer without being too long! Otherwise it’s just an awesome strap anyway. It holds a lot of weight (I didn’t test to spec) but definitely enough for what one would expect! I have both sizes, the smaller one is attached to the multimeter and the larger holds a cord to the side of my toolbox. (Tip)- to prevent slipping just put the magnetic base on the other side of the metal by the box tray and let the strap hang over (if attached to a toolbox). It adds to the weight it can hold too. (Just physics). That will work on anything vertical and thin enough to get around with enough slack to still use the strap. 👍. Would definitely buy another
