Scope and content
Mrs. Edith Hild of 815 No. Ainsworth Ave. is pictured in August of 1972 at the wheel of her 1954 Plymouth Savoy which is parked at Steven Motor Company, Chrysler and Plymouth dealers. The Savoy, which is no longer produced, had its gearshift on the steering wheel column. Mrs. Hild would be swapping her '54 Plymouth for keys to a 1973 Plymouth at the Indiana State Fair. Her car was selected during a nationwide search for the best 1954 Plymouth and presented to singer Johnny Cash. He had once owned a duplicate model which he considered to be the "best car I ever owned." Photograph ordered by Young & Rubicam, Detroit. (TNT 8-30-72, A-1 article)
