For those who are interested, there are a couple of interesting photos from 1958 and discussion on one of the Chicago Factory Branch offices on The Old Motor website.

Is there anything on the web about the NYC Zone Office Showrooms in the 1950s comparable to these pieces on the Chicago factory Dealerships?  My '52 was originally sold by Cadillac to the New York Distributor, and eventually wound up at a Boston area dealership. I think that was a common practice in those years.

Jeff, thanks for posting this very interesting information of Chicago area dealerships.  Fascinating and great photos!

That's the outlet my '62 CdV came through.
