Hi Guscha

Thanks for those newspaper clippings, a fine window into the fact the drive-aways were a big deal promotion activity then.

Just think how those thousands of dealers and personnel enjoyed traveling to the sales convention by train, being treated royally by their factory, living it up in the big city away from 'the women folk', then returning home with a shiny new Packard to sell! That was about as good as it got back then. When the time machine is perfected, I'll set it to that 1931 convention and climb in!
