To me it looks rather like early 1930s. What is your take? Attach file: (15.71 KB)

I was recently given a cache of documents from the Lenoard Williams dealership. Once I have a chance to get them scanned, I'll get them added to the archive here.

Kev, thanks, good prospects.
By the way, this thread is a prime example of how a topic can persist for several years if the forum is maintained. BigKev's staying power defies the half-life of the internet. Hurray! source: The Grantham Journal; Oct 15, 1938 Attach file: The Grantham Journal; Oct 15, 1938.jpg (322.06 KB)

Might we take a moment to proof these posts, certainly the subject heading at least, out of respect for readers? Why is Packards (Imported to England) hyphenated? And it should be exported to England.
Clearly, a long time since Packard advertised in the New Yorker, Literary Digest, the National Geographic, Newsweek, TIME, Fortune.
