Bass Trombone Wauchope: Cars at the Heritage Gardens.

Richard Bunbury and I took a quick trip down to the cape to see the marvelous car collection contained in the round Shaker Barn-like museum. He had never been, and was suitably impressed.

Here is almost the entire collection, as presented. The details are: Cost of the car in the year it was built; Average income for that year in America; Cost in 2023 Dollars.

Every thing got loaded backwords. This should have been the last photo.
At any rate, the famous (perhaps infamous) Green Book which guided black Americans
to hotels and restaurants that would welcome them. This is the 1960 (!!) edition.
