Extinct Car Day

October 24, 2021 — I ended my 2021 car show season with my second trip to the Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline, Massachusetts. They were having their annual Extinct Car Day on the museum's lawn, featuring cars no longer manufactured, although there were also many present that are still very much alive and well. There were many Oldsmobiles at the show, a car with a rich history dating back to 1897, unfortunately dropped by General Motors when it could no longer meet sales goals. Studebakers were also plentiful, their parent company founded before the Civil War as a wagon maker.

As always, I checked inside the museum to see if there were any new acquisitions since my last visit, and indeed there were, most notably a 1954 Humber Super Snipe. You'll find it along with many other great cars of the past at:
