Airstream Community

I found in a Miami thrift store approximately 12 metal boxes containing a well organized collection of personal slides documenting a Dr. Eugene Birchwood's lifelong involvement with the Airstream trailer community. Only a single slide had his name written on it and from this I was able to research a small part of his life. He was a doctor based in Chicago. He was employed briefly by Airstream Trailer and document several international tours or roundups in the mid 1950s. Many slides were taken in Mexico and Europe. View full size.

Someone liked their Studebakers

In the rest of the Birchwood photos the car pulling the Airstream is a 1962 Studebaker Lark wagon. This car is a 1957 Studebaker wagon; however it's unclear which model.

For '57 Studebaker offered wagons based on the Champion (called the Pelham as a 2-door or Deluxe as a 4-door), Commander (Parkview 2-door or Provincial 4-door) and President (Broadmoor 4-door). There was also a 2-door wagon based on the price leader Scotsman line, but it was virtually devoid of chrome.
