Ran across this very fine youtube collection of fifties photos of people posing with their cars. There are a couple of Packards which you will enjoy, but the quality of the photos, the folks, the cars, and the backdrops is outstanding. Oh, and where are all the fat people? I think you will enjoy this:https://youtu.be/b4crqLlgCUM[/quote]

Interesting video and observations. Only a couple of Packards, but some other nice cars made an appearance. I noted that most of the cars were sporting blackwall tires...I counted maybe 15 with whitewall.
