- Description
Shows a car dealer's office and showroom. Top left of the cartoon reads:"The answer to the new-car racket is to import more cars and the government is on the verge of settling the whole problem" - Mr Rae. One despondent car salesman tells the other: "When I think we might be going back to the bad old pre-war days - courtesy, service, servility - and actually having to SELL cars - !" A shortage of vehicles and long waiting lists had made selling cars unnecessary.
