    Hundreds of copies of this presentation were scattered throughout the Detroit market to various sales prospects.  I’m not sure how many exist, but I’m sure there is a master copy somewhere.  In the meantime, this dub of a dub of a dub brings back many memories for some of us old timers.  I’m so glad that a “dumpster dive” discovered this. Amazing to discover video (film) that is almost 60 years old.
