A '50 Super Deluxe Eight, looks good in the tiny postage-stamp-sized photos. Seller list incorrect spec's, may be good car but approach with care, caveat emptor:

Garrett:
There was an article in the "Cormorant News Bulletin" years ago on surviving late number cars. Going on memory here, the latest known was a 400 hardtop 5687-4224. There was also a late Clipper as well, I don't recall the details. The last Caribbean convertible is well known and has been in the club for years. The roster keeper could answer this question better. I do know that so far, the last car, a dark blue Patrician 5682-4775 isn't known to survive. One can only hope it's still out there. Steve

Thanks Howard.
Looks like it beats my current method which is to photograph on my front porch with the best natural light once I've rigged up flattening the magazine with popsicle sticks and metal spring clips. Crude but affective. I haven't done much with bound books. Once I get a good image (always take two or three) I use the www.irfanview.com software to clean up the images to the best I can get them. I might have to look into one of these Visan units. Steve

This nice original '53 Cavalier just turned up on the AACA Forum:
https://forums.aaca.org/topic/373329-for-sale-1953-packard-cavalier-extremely-solid-and-original-warsaw-ny-not-mine/#comment-2318816 It's located about 25 miles from me, if anyone wants it inspected, send me a PM and I will go check it out for you and give you a report. Steve This poor '56 Patrician refugee from the big recent auction in nearby Utica. Although badly deteriorated but with A/C, note the serial number: 5682-4760, fifteen cars from the last Detroit Packard 5682-4775: https://albany.craigslist.org/cto/d/westerlo-1956-packard-patrician/7425164599.html

Hi
The one question I have, does the software visually 'flatten' out the image to accommodate the bound page making a distorted image? Steve
