Nickey backward K Sebring 1962

[JoeC]

I was reading a race report on Sebring 1962 and they show a Corvette entered by Nickey Chevrolet driven by Bob Johnson and Roger Ward prepared by Chicago Corvette specialist Ron Kaplan. The Corvette has "Nickey Nouse" painted on it. The K is backward. This question came up before on when the backward K was used. This is the earliest I have seen it so far. Don Yenko finished second in his class in this race driving a Grady Davis Corvette.
