Baker Auto Sales, Hillsboro, Ohio. Sticker on my ‘60 Lark - built 1/5/60. Does anyone have a photo of the dealership building? It was located at 45 W. Main St. Google maps shows an empty field now. Thanks in advance!

Great looking Decal, I would do everything possible to preserve that, it IS Fragile after all these years.

Thanks, it's there now, but only because you said.... I looked at a few sources and can't find a locale named Opelinka, only Opelika. There are 3-4 names from there, closest being a Henry Lowe from 1951. /

My mistake, it is Opelika.

So according to the 1925 Dealer listing, City Line Garage in Egg Harbor City was a Studebaker Dealer. Well, for decades this place has been one garage after another, it’s currently unoccupied. I guess in a wild dream….a million or so might rehab the place and a half dozen Studes off eBay….
