Merry Christmas!

From its old location at 701 Third Street in Hobart, Paul Heuring Motors sends you the season's greetings.

If you look closely, you can see that a recording is imprinted on the postcard itself. The hole in the center allows you to slip it over the spindle of your phonograph machine.

I haven't yet been able to locate a working phonograph machine that plays 78s, so I don't know exactly what Rosemary Clooney wants me to do, but I'm sure it involves a Ford.

Bought on Ebay.

Heuring Ford (Random Old Photo)

Speaking of Ridge Road, aka U.S. 6, or 37th Avenue, here's an unused postcard I bought that shows Paul Heuring Ford at its "new facilities" south of U.S. 6 on S.R. 51:

I'm not going to pester my usual source for car identification, so I'll just say, based on my own murky memories of the cars of my younger days, I think we're looking at the early 1970s here. Anyone who knows more about cars and/or Heuring Ford than I do is welcome to give his/her opinion in the comments.
