I had no much more to do yesterday since the temperature outside was crazy hot, so in the air conditioned comfort of the house I watched the 1937 movie of "Captains Courageous" with Spencer Tracy and young Freddie Bartholomew. In the first 5 minutes or so we meet the spoiled brat played by Freddie, and he and his two buddies are being driven home in the back seat of a car that jumped out at me as an 810/812 Cord. Only the interior is shown, but that's enough. My eye was first caught by the round interior light, and then I saw the unmistakable headliner.
Could not be a Graham or a Hupp, since this film was made n 1937.
ACD cars show up when and where least expected!!
