Thanks for the heads-up, Dave. I have purposely let my membership in that club lapse, but I'll try to remember to pick up a copy of that one, if I make it to Fall Hershey.

However, after reading a Letter to the Editor in the last issue that I received (#124) regarding article on product development at Packard during the 1950s (from Issue #122), where James Pearsall's opening paragraph stated:

Quote:
I received the latest TPC today and a very fine job it is. I hope we are now done forever with Predictors and the rest of that pitiful mid-fifties, last-gasp, dying warrior, down-the-tubes, over-the-hill-to-the-poorhouse, on-the-way-to-the-crematorium, waiting-for-the-wrecking-crew, paper-the-walls-with-the-worthless-stock-certificates stuff. It's something akin to Camille perishing of consumption in the last act of "Carmen."


...I can only imagine how an article on 1955-56 cars is gonna be received by the prewar snobs in that club.
