THANKS for stopping by, I do my best to acknowledge when someone leaves a comment,you do not have to be a member here & everyone is welcome. Ps: This site is monitored but not actively posting on a regular basis. Mostly these are stories & some photos saved from a defunct site known as Verdun Connections which was on MSN Groups initially then on a social network called Multiply.
Here is a grand old photo of the First Presbytarian Church at 503 - 5th Avenue. I estimate the year of the photo to the beginning of the 30s judging by the shape of the auto. Can anybody identify the car and the year wich will give us an idea of the year of the photo, more or less.

Well I'm thinking it looks like an old Chrysler Airflow from the 30's ,.but because the trunk hinges are externally mounted it seems to be more like a late 30's Pontiac design ?? However Packards were big sellers in those days too...........hmmmmm I'll have to see if I can find an example of this model somewhere. good Question Guy,.....30's vintage of something isn't a far stretch I guess.just which one? that's the question..........HF&RV

Ahh so this is the famous church that held the movies,Just a few weeks ago my brother told me of some of the movies he too saw there. I think one of them was an Elvis movie. hf&rv
