Corte Madera, California, 1968

Published by Mike on

Long ago, we established that Charles Cushman, provider of so many of our street scenes, owned a red 1938 Ford and a gold 1940 Lincoln Zephyr, two cars that appeared quite often in his photographs. In later years, there’s hardly any mention at all of Cushamn’s own cars, but these two photographs, taken on September 27, 1968, at an unnamed Ford dealership in Corte Madera, California, show that Cushman remained a Ford loyalist, trading in the 1958 Ford Fairlane on a 1968 Ford Fairlane. What do you see in these two shots?
