Haas Moto Museum Dallas Texas
On November 9 2018, the author had the opportunity to tour the new Haas Moto Museum located in the Arts District of Dallas Texas, so for this post only this site becomes "Triplett's Eye on Motorcycles."
The main museum at 1201 Oak Lawn Avenue is divided into several areas but the author focused on two areas - the history hall and the race track hall.

The Haas has an annex known as the 'Motorcycle Gallery at Dragon' with 50 more motorcycles on display.
In the nineteen thirties, the sport of "Moto Ball" was all the rage in Europe
the sport was polo played on motorcycles such as this 1936 Koehler-Escoffier
The "Moto Ball" display included this poster, ball and helmet
The Haas Moto Museum is definitely worth a visit if you're in the Dallas area, as it is close to Love Field, open Monday through Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM
