Hi all, need some help.

I have a really old picture of my Dad on a really cool looking cycle. I was wondering if anyone could tell me the year and model of the cycle. It has the logo on it but the picture is so fuzzy I can't tell what it is.

1st off , welcome to the forums Roger . That is definitely a Harley Davidson . Looks like a flathead 45 ci from somewhere between the late '30s-early '40s.
Hard to tell without the full bike being in the picture . Snagged the pic to see if I can clarify it for you when I can .
Regards, Wizzard

Thank you Wizzard. I sure appreciate the help. The timeframe is about right. I found a 1942 Harley Davidson WLA (restored) that has the same paint job, but the logo is different and so are some of the other parts. I'm not sure if it was all original though.
