Also not sure if we've seen this before--I guess I have to admit that, given the length of the thread and the balky search feature, it's getting harder & harder to tell--but here's a pretty dealership at 297 W Colorado in Pasadena. Great vintage shot with a Pierce-Arrow and the make's distinctive fender-mounted headlamps.
Per the W&P caption: "View of the Hewson Motor Company showroom at 297 West Colorado. Architect: Frederick Kenedy Jr.... The car at the curb with 1927 dealers' plates is most likely a 1927 Pierce-Arrow Model 80. In 1928 Studebaker took over Pierce-Arrow and in 1930 local Studebaker dealers Keller Brothers and Marcy Auto operated at this location. In 1935 is was called Earl Lundy Motor Company."
Another hyphenated brand is now in residence.
P.S. Lose the pink! |
Good find
GW. I don't remember seeing this charming little building before.
I have to agree about the pepto-bismol pink.
