Re: original dealer names question

Check at you local library and see if they have city directories from that time. They would like auto dealers, might even get lucky and have one advertising in the book with a logo. another source for city directories is ancestry.com but it takes a subscription. Your local library also should have microfishe files of old newspapers from that time. you could look for ads for dealers, probably on a Thursday or Sunday, those are the big advertising days. I use the city directories and microfish newspaper files to establish chains of business occupancies.
