Re: Hemmings Packard issue

Just got my issue today, and what a pleasure to have an issue dedicated to Packard. But in just browsing I see that Hemmings Classic Car continues to suffer from inadequate proof-reading. For example in the article on the 1935 "Standard Eight", the model of course is the "Eight", the "standard" part of the name having been dropped some years before. And the reference to Bob Bahre in Maine as Bob Behr; really, for a titan in the pre-war Classic Era Packard segment of the hobby, you'd think they'd get his name correct. Good proofing should capture these and other "nits", but still an issue worthy of having and holding.
