#1212 is interesting, Joe. The folks are lined up to see a model home, I presume?

Note that it is early in the 1950s, before bright-colored cars exploded on the market beginning in 1955. Many dark cars in that photo; maybe one two-tone (much less a tri-tone!).

My, how that would change before the end of the decade. BP

Yeah maby so Neil, but it could've been, I didn't own it until about 2 years ago, but then it's a Belgian-built car that's been living in Europe all it's life so... it couldn't at all!

That black Lark wagon (The Deceptive Lark) belonged to my brother, Dan Sallia. What a surprise to see a photo of it here. I have not even thought about that car for years. I will let Dan know it is posted here. He'll get a kick out of seeing it.

Bob,
The photo of the black Lark wagon "Deceptive Lark" took me by surprise. That was my brother Dan's car in the late 60s. Can you tell me who took the photo? Also when and where?
