Who could forget Marion and her wonderful ads (at least one showing the
company utilizing a Triumph 10 Estate Wagon)! Oh, the simpler days, when
outfits such as Marion's sold "MG Mitten" car covers along with Triumph
Tunics, Alfa Ascots, Ferrari Frocks (or whatever, you all get the point I
hope)....
Of course, we East Coasters tended to shop at Wilco in Rochester, NY. ;-)
