I was present at the auction of the Gifford Oborne estate in Morristown, New Jersey, on June 10, 1989, when the Cadillac was sold. Even a Packard man such as myself would testify to the fact that as good as it looks on your magazine cover, it looks even better when viewed in person. I’d like to see more articles in your magazine relating to the automotive industry in American history. In particular, the decade of the 1930s is of interest, since we were building the best cars we would ever make at a time when people were least able to afford them.
