"On behalf of Expert Village my name is Bob Lanning and I’m here to tell you about we’re making model villages. As you can see a lot of these vehicles are really accurate looking at one time. That wasn’t that way but there’s so many good models out you can see the little Ford convertible and the little 50’s Mercury and some of them have the figures in them. The ‘55 Chevy, there’s many trucks that are accurately portrayed. You can see the little scenes they make now with a couple here and the old Mercury. Here’s another Ford convertible full of people and a Cadillac. At one time the vehicles were like this, plastic and not very accurate but now with these new die-cast models, and some are plastic, are very accurate. They’re usually seven to eight dollars a piece, some like this are only under two dollars and there’s a lot of models of the 1950’s cars because that’s what we try to depict here. There’s another vehicle I’m going to show you here that’s another one of the Scene-master things with the little load in the pickup and the dog in there and that’s about a ‘55 Chevy so this would represent the nice stuff you can get today and so it kind of looks like a street in the 50’s. We have a little rich person here and their attendant figures like a little 1938 Cadillac V-16, that’s a fairly good-looking vehicle. "
