Accidental Self Portriat



While I was recently shooting this beautiful old Chevy, a man passing by stopped and took a long, wistful look.

When I look at an old car like that," he said, "I see myself."

Me too. (I'm right there in the hub cap. See?)

Are you a late-model silver Japanese car?

Look at those whitewalls. "See the USA in your Chevrolet.....smack".

I happened to think, everyone doesn't know or remember Dinah Shore and her famous Chevrolet ad where she threw a kiss to the audience.

I didn't know. Thanks Dixie. They probably have a u-tube of it

Mister Earl said...

Yeah. There are several versions of "See the USA in a Chevrolet" on YouTube. We talked about some of them a month or so ago. I think the kiss thing that Dinah Shore did may have been her own signature thing that she incorporated into the song.
