Studebaker Dealership - Home & Hobby shop

[OHEKK]

Hi Mark!

Harry Israel also sold Desotos, Triumphs and lastly Toyota.

I think the Kuetner Olds dealership was on the corner of Grand & College.

Of course ALL the dealers were downtown yaers ago... That was before Brookfield Square and the "Auto Dealer Row" ( Hy 18 )

Jack Coe Pontiac, Dale Chevrolet, Griffin Ford, Shaub Buick, Spencer Cadillac, Doering Dodge...I think there was also a Hudson Dealership. I didn't know that place on Grand was an Edsel dealership. I'll have to take a closer look.

The final airing of our project will be May 28 at 7PM eastern

You're right about Kuetner... I thought that they had some involvement with your buiding as well?

My Uncle was a sign painter and had virtually painted all the advertising on the sides of the downtown buildings as well as the Window signs.

Found out that he painted your showroom windows many years ago for Harry...!

Some of his advertisements are still visible in the morter joints of the brick!

Here's a shot of my shop... "MAPLEGLENN GARAGE"



Later

Sorry to revive such an old thread. But does anyone have this episode of rezoned on their computer? Or just this segment?

Have tried to find it on the internet but I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks,

Dan.
