Love the Packard promo photo with the Gipper. To bad he didn't stick around to sell the Clipper!

:scratch:North Americans often forget that we're not all Americans. This comment is to me as obscure than would be, to you "J'aime la photo de pub Simca avec Tonton. Dommage qu'il soit pas resté dans le coin pour vendre la Tagora!

Besides... it's a Lincoln, here...

I just saw that pic in a magazine article about Ford's first new postwar cars.

Being a bit of a film buff, I was sure you would remember what was, perhaps, Ron's best known role. Reagan played the part of Notre Dame football player George Gipp in Knute Rockne: All American.

And the last thing he said to me, "Rock," he said, "sometime when the team is up against it and the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to go out there with all they've got and win just one for the Gipper"

I didn't make the connection, having not seen that film, and found out only after posting my comment. The roles I associated  Reagan with were Jack Browning in The Killers - a baddie, and Cowpoke in Tennessees's Partner - a nice guy.

In picture #43 of this post by Otto, the little girl in the trunk was Kate Barry, daughter of John Barry, musician, and Jane Birkin, actress (here seen with second companion Serge Gainsbourg).
Kate died a few days ago, following a fall from her fourth floor window.
