Did  You  Know...

Just after filming of the movie “Johnny Dark” was completed in 1953, Tony Curtis shared his thoughts as follows: “All the cars in the border-to-border race are of special design, turned out by some of the foremost sports car men in the country. The designs are futuristic in conception, and I think they’re impressive enough to make a change in the type of cars tomorrow’s automobile buyers will want.”

— Tony Curtis, Toledo Blade Newspaper, November 22nd, 1953.
