Tom Dailey Photo
Above is a photo of Tom Dailey, taken about 1947. Something unusual is the white plastic wheel trim between the hub cap and the rear car tire. Back then, white wall tires and full size wheel covers were expensive and somewhat rare. The inexpensive plastic trim kind of bridged the gap between the two, but was even more rare.
