Yes. This photo was taken in the design studio viewing area In the Grand Blvd. Packard Plant just off of Concord Avenue. The Predictor is sitting on a motorized turntable in the floor where several photos were taken.

The question is, what are they discussing on that paper?

This was shortly after thin-line whitewall tires were installed. Something considered very futuristic for that time.

Look for untold Packard Predictor secrets in an upcoming issue of The Packard Cormorant magazine– the glossy publication of The Packard Club.


Thank you Leeedy for the info on where the pic was taken. The info about the thin whitewalls is interesting!

As far as what they are discussing on that paper -- my guess is nothing, that this was a 'staged' photo op.

I had wondered if other similar pictures have surfaced with other dealers posing with James Nance. Has anyone seen any?
