#10 shows six-year-old Paul Vilardi in a one-cylinder midget racer built by his father Dolph Vilardi. The year is most likely 1953. ;)

The picture is from 1953; the article that you both found says it was built in 1951.

This one's done

Otto: as you can see one has to type pretty fast in this competitive environment :) Anyhow, I am happy that another long-running puzzle has been put to bed. Now, am I up to researching songs again :)?

Pal:
this puzzle was in the Pro's for quite a long time, so, it was more a matter of coincidence that we both give it a closer look just today.
You beat me just about two minutes. I can't say I'm pleased.  ;)
