    The model bears a strong resemblance to my mother, ca. 1951.

    Charlene: I hope she dressed warmer then, or that you lived in the south.

    It’s amazing how many scantily clad women have been used to sell automotive products over the years, isn’t it?

    @Toronto: my mother was from Edmonton, and she usually dressed warmer – unless there were boys about, if the photos she left behind are any evidence.

    The more things change, the more they stay the same.
