And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Wow. The early episodes of Perry Mason are on late at night and some of the cars you see on that show are stunning. I'm reluctant to use that word but it's the best way to describe them.
As does 'Highway Patrol', mornings at 5am PST on MeTV. But the cars are mostly utilitarian Fords, Buicks and Dodges. Nothing as fancy as Perry's rigs, but it sure is a hoot to see a CHP Buick Roadmaster cruiser with portholes!
Wow.

We'll never see their like again.
DeleteEven the later episodes of Superman have some nice 55-58's
