mfg Posted June 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 ANSWER.....This connection was in the form of a first-aid travel kit manufactured by Johnson&Johnson, available through Studebaker dealers, designed to promote the brand new (at the time) Hi-Fidelity AM-FM Delco radio!

r1lark Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Well, DUH......I knew that. But thought you meant what was the connection between the two companies that would drive them to do the first aid kit. Oh well...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also aware of it. Many years ago, when at the Studebaker National Museum, I noticed one of these kits labeled as 1958 (IIRC). I said that wasn't possible because Studebaker first had AM/FM radios for the 1964 model year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Mom's '64 Challenger 4-door sedan had one in the glovebox. In the old days when it was safe to leave kids in the car at stores, I used to go thru all the things in the glovebox - the owners manual, the accessories manual, the 'love that lark' brochure, and the stuff in the first aid kit. Can't tell you how many times I read that owners manual and accessories manual! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
