Artifact Overview

While dealers of low- and mid-priced cars might feature their vehicles at shows in large exposition halls, upmarket dealers preferred more elegant surroundings. Luxury-automobile shows, or salons, were often staged in fine hotels. This photo of an early 1930s salon shows Cadillac and LaSalle vehicles displayed for would-be buyers.
