Looks like a set of plastic models. I am sure it is just the picture quality. Cool.

Re: Another view of "the Golden Cameo"
I'm confused. The two yellow Camaro's appear to be '67 models. The yellow truck a '67.
The Corvette is not '67 so probably a '68. The Nova is not a '67 either. Where's the Suburban? I don't see a Chevelle. Perhaps there were more Chevrolets in attendance but not pictured.

Re: Another view of "the Golden Cameo"
Possibly 4 people but 2 for sure.
The guy standing buy the blue station wagon. One is walking by the Chevy logo.There are possibly one on each top corner of the picture also. Its hard to say though.

Re: Another view of "the Golden Cameo"
It's all '68s except for the the special show truck and Camaro combo. They were just getting another year out of their investment. I'm sure the picture was taken before the show opened. I see 4 or 5 people, most likely associated with the show.

Re: Another view of "the Golden Cameo"
I'm going to guess it's one of the last times the outfit made an appearance. If we only knew what happened to it......

Re: Another view of "the Golden Cameo"
If anyone is curious what this combo is, here's another pic:
Rumor has it they were both crushed?

Re: Another view of "the Golden Cameo"
There is one vehicle in there which makes it look like a set of miniatures.
It is the red 67/68' truck in the lower left corner parked right beside the yellow truck. That combo makes things look 'off'. Try this....block out the red truck with your finger and the setting looks pretty normal. Its funny how period colors can throw things off. Coley

Re: Another view of "the Golden Cameo"
He's spoofing on the picture,playing along with those who think the picture is a diorama. It is real, the '68 Detroit Auto Show, I believe.
Here is more of that truck:
