In the 30s strikers were often met with hired gunmen carrying lots of heat. Unfortunately this new '33 Studebaker (at right) happened to be "in the wrong place at the wrong time." No way to know if it suffered any lasting damage but bullet holes are easy to patch? That is a ubiquitous Model A cabriolet at left.

Dick,
I think that this a still picture taken from the other side of the street from the newsreel footage that I have seen. The newsreel shows a 33, which is the only car visible on the street, as strikers walk down the sidewalk, breaking out all the windows on the lower level of the building. I think that his has to be the same event. Do you have any access to that newsreel?-Bill
