It measures 18" x 24" and is printed in full color on heavy enamel stock with a varnish coating

In the vignettes you'll see models like the Commander, Champion, Hawk, Lark, Daytona, Weasel, Ambulet, E-Series trucks, R-Series trucks, M-Series trucks, Coupe Express, President, Dictator, and more... from horse drawn to pre-war, military and up to the last years. $6 each.

The Story of Studebaker
In 1952 Studebaker celebrated their 100th anniversary in the transportation industry having started with a blacksmith shop in 1852.
To commemorate the event they produced medallions, books and other items including a set of two 78 rpm records.
The story of Studebaker's history was narrated by actor Raymond Massey, you'll also hear the President of the Studebaker Corporation talking and the Studebaker Male Chorus singing "Rolling Along for a Hundred Years".
This new CD was made from a mint condition original set of records. The cover was reproduced to fit the jewel case.
Now you can listen to this anywhere you have a CD player since many people don't have the ability to play a 78 rpm record anymore.
13:58 playing time, hours of fun
$10 each
