Favorite Old Photo: Theiss Chevrolet ad



2011-07-17 - Greensburg, KY - Photo from Larry Smith collection.
Larry Smith submitted this copy of an old Theiss Chevrolet advertising piece from the 1960s, which featured a two door hardtop with sporty white sidewall tires and big wheel chrome wheel covers. Theiss Chevrolet was the located in Greensburg, KY on West Court ST, where the Green County Library/Greensburg Municipal Building is today. The car appears to be a second generation (1967-69) Chevy II, before the classic style was bopperized into a muscle car for teenagers. Corvair was Chevrolet's answer to a VW bug, had bathtub styling and a rear engine, was a gas saver good for carrying papers, and was the vehicle which launched the career of Ralph (Unsafe at Any Speed) Nader, best remembered for the disastrous effects he had on the outcomes of United States Presidential elections and consequentially, the future of humanity. Comment from Billy Joe Fudge:"I think it is a Chevelle Malibu." Elaboration on BJ Fudge ID from Brad Conover: "A 1964-1965 (probably 65) 2 door Chevelle Malibu. I owned one." Jason Cox sends the final clarification on the model, one you can take to the bank: "It is definitely a 1964 model Chevelle Malibu." He knows, he says, by the design of the grill.

Richard Raines ID cars as late as 1958s in Larry Smith Photo

Richard Raines writes:
If the cars visible in the middle of the left hand side of the picture are the same ones from the picture you ran the other day (with the people visiting) in front of the drug store) the 2 tone station wagon by the steps is a 1958 Chevrolet station wagon.

I also saw a pale 1957 Chevrolet station wagon (second car up pulled in off the main street on left across from courthouse). You can tell it by the "signature" tailfins from 1957. I can't make anything out for certain any newer although there might be a pale 1959 Ford 4-door sedan on the left in front of stores. (I kind of miss the days from mid 1950s to about 1975 or 1976 when you could tell the full sized Ford and Chevrolets just by glancing at them - I never was good at telling the compacts, Dodges or the more "upscale" brands apart --Richard Raines

Mike Watson: A favorite story from Margaret Coffey Staples

Comments re article 45582: A young couple goes to Gretna Green north 1912Mike Watson writes:
Ed, There are many good stories that touch upon Mr. Richeson F. "Rich" Paull. One of my personal favorites was told me by Mrs. Margaret Coffey Staples, long-time owner of Lany Bray & Company. Mrs. Staples, our neighbor on High Street until her death, in referring to Mr. Paull, would say with a twinkle of the eye, "He was Rich Paull and he was 'rich' Paull." -MW
Thanks. For the story and for bringing Mrs. Staples back to mind. What a class act she was! She had such elegance and poise. And Lany Bray & Company? It may have been dwarfed by counterparts in Louisville, but none there had more style. George Jr. Staples and Margaret Coffey Staples were a beautiful couple; so many of our fond memories of the fifties center around them. -EW.

Worried voice recognizer won't recognize Ohio/S.T. blend

When voice recognition becomes sophisticated enough to accurately interpret my thick Great Wooded South / Sacred Triangle accent (now overlaid with a North of the Green River patina), perhaps someone will be so kind as to let me know.

Sulphur Well Tales: Just one concern on the inebriate's mind

Scotty Martin remembers a wreck on KY 70 near his boyhood home when he was a small child.

A driver who had imbibed considerably more than the legal limit roared up the road from Sulphur Well, over the Hazel Jewell Hill, toward the Y. The car left the road, hit a telephone pole, and that pretty well finished the car.

Scotty says he ran to see what had happened when the dazed driver emerged from the wreckage and scanned the terrible mess he had made. "Then he asked me," Scotty said, "Is I dead?"

Today's CM TechLinkClick: To 12 Technologies on the way out

There's an interesting list of dying technologies on the way out at www.telegraph.co.uk, which lists some surprising technologies which they say won't be around long. One, the demise of the hated Fax machine, made me euphoric; so very happy. I have a few I want to give the Office Space copier bashing treatment to. But it's bittersweet to see them predict the passing of the keyboard just when I'm trying to adapt a wireless one to a notepad. They say voice recognition will supplant keyboards.

Poetry by Robert Stone: A sonnet for my class of 1957

Reunion
-a sonnet for my class of 1957
Three score and ten we now remaining strive
to gather and remember high school days.
We soon shall say, fifty-five and still alive
since graduation sent us on our ways.

In youth a century was understood
no more than higher mathematics realm.
We now can say, we could two-thirds and would
not yet withdraw the hand from sunset helm.

Our final wish to end with minds yet clear
and bodies quick to move with little fuss.
We still will say, another year to cheer
the ones who after come and cherish us.

May loves and almost loves steadfast strong
display the right and much forgive the wrong.

- Robert Stone, 17 July 2011

JIM: Man's humanity to Man: a Civil War tale of compassion

In a Civil War reunion at Weed, Southwestern Adair County, a reunion of two old soldiers, one who had been just a boy as a Union soldier from Bluff Boom, Green Co., KY, the other a middle-aged Confederate from Tennessee who lived out his last years in Lower End of Adair County, led to a close friendship which lasted throughout the rest of their lives. Theirs is a most unusual story of twists and turns and coincidences, of defiant aid between individuals of enemy camps. In this story there is no inhumanity to man.

By "Jim"

This article appeared in the December 8, 1920 edition of the Adair County News.

The following story has been told us and it is said that the incident which will follow actually occurred. Both of the participants are yet living.

Mike Watson: Two venues favored for Columbia, KY duels

Adair County historian identifies Paull Street, and bank of Russell Creek as favored venues for practice, which, though outlawed in Commonwealth, was common practice - even in Columbia!
About: Comments re article 45311 JIM The BurtonSettle Duel of 1850

By Mike Watson:
Duelling was against the law in Kentucky, but it sure was a common practice, even in Columbia. The location of the jail in 1850 lay between the current jail and the main or old part of Stotts, Phelps, McQueary Funeral Home - what many readers will remember as the Coomer Building, later incorporated into the funeral home.

Isaac Watts on the Kentucky Frontier

Today July 17 marks the birthday of Isaac Watts (1674-1748). Now viewed as the father of the modern English hymn text, he wrote verses that could be sung to the popular tunes of his day and used wherever English-speaking people gathered for worship. Born to parents who dissented from the Church of England, he began creating rhyming couplets when he was a child. Sometimes his constant rhyming drove his parents to distraction.

A young couple goes to Gretna Green (north), 1912

Gentle readers: Because of the enlightened culture pervading Columbia in those days, The Adair County Newsof 1912 could allude to "Gretna Green," without being either esoteric or seeming to put on airs. In those days, everyone knew. But Robert Stone points out, as Jim has in earlier stories of famous Adair County secretive marriages, to readers of this day, "Gretna Green is a village in the south of Scotland famous for runaway weddings."
See also stories provided by "Jim" of other famous Adair County elopements by Jim: While "Jim" intends none of his pieces for the paper to in any way incite or steer up folks, other charming and printable stories of this genre are welcome. -EW

By "Jim

Nearly every Adair Countian knew or has heard of Mrs. Ruth Paull Burdette, well-known local historian, genealogist, and author, but perhaps not as many know of the circumstances of her marriage.

This article appeared in the December 4, 1912
News.

Eloped to Tennessee

A telephone message Sunday night [December 1st, 1912] from Mr. W.R. Lyon, Campbellsville, to Mr. R.F. Paul, this place, stated that it was generally believed at the former town where Miss Ruth Paull, daughter of Mrs. Lena Paull, this city, was visiting, that the young lady and Mr. Sam Burdette, a young trader of Marion County, who frequently visits Columbia, had eloped to Tennessee, as they had left Campbellsville in a buggy together and the information Mr. Lyon received after their departure, warranted him in the opinion that the couple had left for the purpose of getting married.
