The history of Dagmars 2 Attachment(s)
When you go into Wikipedia, and look up Dagmar bumpers, it shows you a picture of a 53' Mercury.
The second website is the history of Dagmars showing Cadillac's. You definitely get the feeling the automotive design teams back then were all men! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagmar_bumper https://www.curbsideclassic.com/desi...-and-namesake/ |

Re: The history of Dagmars For all you young 'grasshoppers' too young to remember small-screened black and white TVs that you had to physically twist knobs on to change channels or volume, Dagmar gained her notoriety in early TV programming with the likes of Uncle-Milty Berle, Bob Hope, Eddie Cantor, Frank Sinatra and others. Originally named Ruth Egnor, she was given the name "Dagmar" when she was featured as a 'dumb blond' on TV's first (short-lived) late-night TV show. She should NOT, under any stretch of the imagination, be confused with the front end of a '56 Caddy. DD

My other car is an MG, and she is named "Dagmar". It is definitely about the "Headlights".
Cheers, Byron. |
