This blog will expand on themes and topics first mentioned in my book, "The Automobile and American Life." I hope to comment on recent developments in the automobile industry, reviews of my readings on the history of the automobile, drafts of my new work, contributions from friends, descriptions of the museums and car shows I attend and anything else relevant.

A Bit More on Mildred Deason's 1952 Oldsmobile 98
Hi folks -- just talked to Grandma today about the previous entry photo of her with her 1952 Oldsmobile 98. She told me that her husband, Jim Golden, went to town saying he was going to buy a new suit. They had just moved to Aiken, S.C. from Prattville, AL, as Jim was working at the Du Pont Savannah River Plant. Instead of coming home with a suit, he came home with that car, which Mildred (Mickey) says her two girls (then age 4 and 3) loved very much.
