You had to get that plastic overlay (with its own peculiar aroma) to fully participate in "Winky Dink". I should know...getting spanked for using a crayon directly on the ol' Motorola's screen.

Elkton, MD -- A few months after the Great Depression rocked the country, the Mayor and Commissioners of the Town of Elkton took a major step forward, purchasing a patrol car for the two-man police force. This was the first patrol car for the county's local law enforcement. The 1930 Ford was purchased from Warren W. Boulden for $493.
A local newspaper, suggesting that Chicago gangsters should steer of Elkton, criticized the modernization of the department. "Although the Elkton Police may be short in number, they are now long on equipment. A year or more ago, they were furnished with impressive-looking revolvers and Sam Browne Belts, and now an automobile in which to dash around. Certainly, Chicago racketeers and gangsters should steer clear of Elkton," the Cecil Democrat editorialized.
In the photo (L to R) Mayor Taylor McKinney, Night Officer Albert Buckworth, and Chief George Potts proudly have their photo taken with the new vehicle.

"This image shows a Pickwick Stages bus from the late 1920s, equipped with luxurious amenities. The bus was fitted with features quite advanced for its time, such as a bar and a radio antenna. The design incorporates a "Nite Coach" style structure with a different level on top."

Trivia for the day.
When watching old school western movies, US Army/Cavalry wore chevrons point down, but WW2 movies show chevrons point up.
According to the google, the US Army changed the chevron pattern in 1902.
