Packard Forum Index » General

I just found a big bundle of Packard Dealership information at a yard sale and will be scanning it to share with the group. There are a few years of the Packard "Trade Letter" included plus the dealership agreement.

This will take a while to get scanned because there is a big stack covering the late 40s to the mid 50s. There is even an announcement of G.T. Christopher being awarded an honorary degree from Rose Polytechnic Institute. The press release was Nov. 13, 1949. Interesting stuff.

An interesting inclusion was a collection of 7 prints that I'll try to get scanned also. Here is a sample for you of a 1912 Packard Landaulet.

Enjoy,

Gene

That 1912 Packard model looks like a Revel Kit that I bought and built back in the mid '50s. On closer examination, it is a print? Still looks awfully familiar.

These are prints of the cars they were advertising for sale as miniatures. They were from the "Matchbox" Series of "Models of Yesterday" and were made from metal in England according to the rest of the paperwork I have. There are 7 cars in this series and they are called the "Classic 7 Cars". I actually got all 7 prints in this package.
