I am bringing Oldsmobile showroom transparencies from 1952, '53, '56, '61, '62, '63 and '69. These were meant to be put is a frame with a fluorescent light behind them.
The fan and defrost knobs, and the temp and air levers look very 1953/54 Plymouth/Dodge. 1954 Dodge has a similar panel but there is a third lever for vent, and the fan and defrost knobs are elsewhere on the dash. Also, the defrost knob on the '54 Dodge just says "DEF" and is an electrical blower switch rather than a cable drive like this one.
What if you were to loosen the allen screws and remove the knobs? Might there be a number on the back of the knobs, or down in the rim of the housing that the knobs are hiding?
I'm guessing this is late 40s to mid 50s because the wires for the blower resistor are attached by screws rather than a push on connector. Sure looks like it would fit a '55 Chevy, but their controls don't have those big knobs. Wish I could place it.
According to the Oct. 28, 1920 edition of the Oxford Press, cement floors were laid in Frank Wilson's new auto garage building at Third and Broad streets. Frank Wilson dealt in Reo and Overland. Later he would deal in Studebaker.
