Hi,

The parade phaetons have been featured in a number of movies/tv specials.
Thanks for the siting!!  Along with the other great information off the
website that Leslie provided, the club's movie section does offer a number
of other examples of the '52 parade phaeton with viewable clips and quite a
few good screen captures.  Here is a list of what we have so far.  If anyone
else has any sitings, PLEASE let us know.
