This beautiful old Graham was parked in the garage at the Oakland Museum last Friday night. It looks so stylish.

  4. Automobile styling peaked in the 1930's. Too bad it did not survive WW2. Everything looks like a running shoe now and to get to that every form of ugliness has been tried. Pity.
    La Salle quit in the year of my birth but there were still many around when I started noticing cars.

  6. Appears to be a 1941 Hupmobile Skylark. Only 319 were produced. Modeled after the 1937 Cord but less expensive.

  7. Most likely a 1940-41 Graham Hollywood Sedan since both grilles seems to be chromed.
    The similar Hupmobile Skylark had only the lower grill in chrome and the upper parts in bodycolour.
