CONNECTICUT NEW HAVEN

Brown & Thomas Olds Cadillac, (19-- 2009)

This showroom brochure produced in 1967 was a miniature version of the full size ones normally found in dealerships. This mini brochure uses the same photos and graphics with excerpted copy from the full size brochure. The dealer has a stamp for the dealership, and then interestingly, a stamp is made for each individual salesman who added his name and picture to the brochure.

Here is the cover of the brochure, followed by a large image of the dealer stamp on the back.

The mini folder left a space for the dealer stamp, as seen below.

There are still dealers and car repair shops sprinkled along Whalley Avenue in New Haven to this day, but it seems that this particular dealership is no longer in business. A business card from the dealer shows a prior address, back when the Cadillac Sixty One was still a new model.

There was a Thomas Cadillac Jaguar dealer in Hartford, CT that ran from 1989 until 2009 which may have been an offshoot of this original dealership.
