Thanks to Mark for the tip-off. These are at the auction that is held in the same Vegas hotel and on the same days as the Gene Romero Indoor Flat Track, this coming weekend. I've never seen a Crocker speedway bike. Look how the front sprocket is mounted, with the driveshaft coming out of the frame. And that pie-crust Avon Dirt Track.
I hope someone with the attitude of the Blast from the Past guys (who actually race bikes of this vintage) buy it, but I doubt it. Some rich collector who hasn't ridden a bike in 30 years will probably snaffle it and think he's doing the world a favour by saving it. G
