Auction of large collection of Studebaker, including Avanti, literature

[Skip Lackie]

Some of you may remember Asa Hall of Connecticut.  He was pretty much the guru of Studebaker trucks for a long time.  He traveled to South Bend back in the 1960s when the company was throwing away a lot of factory photos and other documents, and saved as much as he could.  He authored several books on Studebaker and had a large collection of Studebaker vehicles and literature.  He was killed in an auto accident several years ago, and his wife/estate has been dispersing his collection of material ever since.  I gave a talk on Studebaker trucks at the Rhode Island SDC meet a few years ago, and most of the photos that I used were borrowed from Sharon Hall.

Anyway, a lot of his literature (including Avanti and Avanti II) and a few other items are now being auctioned off.  There's a lot to look through, but the material is well organized with plenty of photos. Happy bidding.

I believe Mr. George Krem became the owner of Asa’s beautiful ‘58 Studebaker Golden Hawk.
