Re: [VAL] Shirley's Factory Tour Pictures

[Steve Lewis <stevelewis@xxxxxxxxx>]

Y'know, I'd be surprised if Airstream's marketing geniuses even care 
what trailers they have on display at the factory. In reading my 
Christmas copy of "Silver Palaces" (you're right Wally, it's great) on 
page 33 Tim Champ is quoted as saying, "And the Vintage Airstream 
folks, well, they don't do anything for us either. At this point we 
don't need the publicity; everyone knows who we are. We need sales." If 
this is the marketing foresight Airstream is banking on, pretty soon 
ALL Airstreams will be vintage... mislabeled or not!
Major thanks to Fred for keeping on top of things and making sense of 
the confusing history of Airstream, Silver Streak and Curtis Wright... 
or Curtiss Wright.  Nice job!
