          Is anyone able to see this pic? I can't, but sure would like to!

          EDIT: Now visible. Thanks! Didn't Vernon open in 1948? This looks a bit primitive for '48, don't you think?

                  If you mean the picture of the workmen on the assembly line in Post 8124, it looks good here. BP

                  • I am seeing the pic in 8124 just fine. Could it be that different browsers & O/S's are treating pics differently? I am using firefox. Also, my operating system is windows 7 pro.

                      According to the description of the picture the Vernon (Los Angeles) Plant opened in 1938.

                        The Vernon plant assembled its first Studebaker on Nov. 23, 1935 (1936 model year). Its last was June 6, 1956. Total production 265,976 or approx 11.2% of total. See your Turning Wheels for July 1996 my Almanac column.
