Re: 1951 250 research

The picture you linked to is at the Chicago auto show on 2/17 to 24/51, which is right at announcement of the availability of the Mayfair and convertible. The Mayfair and convertible both have 4 holes. The 3 hole car is the Patrician, which always had 3 for 1951. Someone recently reported a Patrician with 4 to me, but Packard pushed them as accessory items to put on any model if desired. Thus one needs to be careful. Proper spacing might be the clue as to whether a fourth was added or original.
