Recently bought this 1948 snapshot of "Wink, Booger and Crosley" - with an annotation like that, how could I resist?
One interesting factoid: the photo is labeled "Bradenton, E. Fla."
Bradenton, Florida is the site of Powel Crosley's cozy 11,000 square foot winter mansion, Seagate. I wonder if Wink was somehow affiliated with the estate? (I'm just assuming Booger is the dog.) Also interesting that the car has a spotlight - can't remember seeing another Crosley equipped with one.
Will probably never know the story behind this one, but fun to speculate for sure....
