1949-1950 Fords had small taillights. 1951 Fords had a wider taillight with a "chrome" trim strip on the quarter panel to meet up with the end of the wider taillight (quarter panel not changed).

Must be somewhere in Toronto.

I don't believe Sweet Caporal (or "Sweet Caps") cigarettes were ever sold in the U.S.

9895 -- I agree with Craig. The 1946/48 Plymouth on the right has an Ontario license plate, probably 1949.
