Small cars

in 1947 my car was getting old that I drove to my teaching job and Ray had given his 1928 car to his parents. We saw an ad and bought a Crosley for I think $900.00. It was small, took little gas and it was like sitting in a cage with the sewing machine running. At the Topeka Daily Capital where Ray worked the printers loved to hide it from Ray or just move it. Four of them would pick it up. Sometimes he would find it on the walk in front of the paper. There was a theater just east of the paper and they loved to put it in the lobby. My mother was sure we would hit a dog and have a wreck. We We put in an ad and sold it after having it a month and got the full price for the car.
