Dear Autopuzzle-Team,
 
My name  is  Dan, I am the editor of the men based Daimler Blog, we are doing social media /PR. for Daimler.  I am currently  writing  a story about Bernd Maylaender, who is the saftety car driver for the Formula 1. Therefore I would also like to go a little back in history and mention the very first pace car driver, Carl Fisher. Now on your side I found this very nice earl photograph from him with his car.  Do I perhaps get permission to use it in our blog if I state the copyright and put a link to your website?  That would great! http://blog.daimler.de

 
Looking forward to hear from you, kind regards from Stuttgart
 
Dan

Dan,

I've got the team at Autopuzzles working on collecting in one place all of the photos of Carl Fisher we can assemble. You can find what we come up with at the following link:

Sincerely,
