Default Old Ford Dealer Ridgewood New York???

Any info on Ridgewood Automobile Co, Inc. (Ford Dealer), located at 2430 (60-80) Myrtle Avenue Ridgewood, Brooklyn New York. They were there in the early 1930's.

I just did a quick glance at 'The Ford Agency' by Henry Dominguez, but did not see any mention of Ridgewood Automobile Co. Have you tried Google?

Yes, tried searching online. No historical reference a all. My original Bill of Sale for the '33 is from that dealership. I will try the historical society from that area.
Someone recently told me that La Fres Ford may have been in the same location. But it appears La Fres Ford went out of business within the past 10-15 years.

Why not write to Ford Motor Company? I should think they have a very good archive section. I feel sure they would be delighted to help you ?

Seems to me a name like that would make a used car dealer a distinct possibility.
