The Barth Rangers

Post by Rokrover »

The camp host at Queen Mine RV Park in Bisbee resides in a Barth, so I post a close up of this rare motor home, much in the Chinook vein. This was the first Barth I ever came across so I had to look it up on Tin Can Tourists Wiki:

"The Barth Company never produced more than 300 units per year.... Although relatively few Barth motorhomes were manufactured, the Barth name is well known among aficionados of high-end motorhomes. The company’s history can be traced to Bob Barth, who owned the Beeline Trailer Company. In 1963, Barth left Beeline to form the Barth Trailer Company, which was founded on the principle of building quality all-aluminum travel trailers. At the time, many travel trailers and almost all mobile homes used a wood frame with aluminum sheathing. Barth produced his all-aluminum trailers in his Milford, Indiana, factory from 1963 until 1968. Their owners’ club is the Barth Rangers... "
