Yeah, a "big" salary back then would have been $5000 a year...About then, my dad got a raise from $35 a week to $50 a week...but he had to come back after supper & help wash up the presses...He & my mom bought a new '55 Chevy & my granmother, -his mom- raised hell about it. Said he was acting like somebody who made $100 a week..."You gonna have to draw in yo' horns", she'd say. $1000 doesn't sound like so much today, but back then that was about more money than the Good Lord had..no wonder not many CT-100s were sold.-Sandy G.
