Neonex Boler

Here, in some random back alley, in some random Calgary neighbourhood, March of 2016, it’s a Boler for us to discover. It’s a thirteen foot model, looking a little ragged and sitting in front it’s a dirty old toilet. There’s nothing more photogenic than that!

Bolers were made in a number of factories all over Canada depending on the era. This particular one comes from Neonex and likely made at their Winfield BC factory. This plant made thirteen foot models and many (or all) carry the standard company paint job (or gel-coat job), that being a tan base colour accented by orange and brown or yellow-ish stripes at the belt line. Those ’70s stylings!

Many thirteen foot models from other factories were one colour, or two toned – white on top and another for the bottom.

Neonex had a mobile home factory on 16th Avenue in Calgary that also made seventeen foot Bolers for a time. This building still stands and for a while housed a flea market, but today is a furniture store. We’ve been meaning to go inside some day.

The owners of this trailer have been to the “Prairie Egg Gathering”, a yearly get together of Boler aficionados.

Something random to enjoy…
