FR O M TH E E X E C U TI V E DI RE CTOR HEARTF ELT AP PR E C IATION As the year came to a close, our thoughts turned to all those who not only supported the Museum in 2018, but who helped over the years to make it possible to reach our 29th Anniversary in November. This period of time also coincided with the holiday season when we witnessed the spirit of giving across our country – when people give gifts, make donations and share their service with a special cause.

We are reminded of our good fortune, because the spirit of giving is alive all year long at the Museum.

Volunteers share their time, talent and skills throughout the year, generously giving more than they receive. Our employees work each day to accomplish our goals with a remarkable sense of dedication and have become one of our most compatible teams on record.

Again this year, the Museum earned the 100% Giving Board Award from the Community Foundation of Western Nevada – an award in recognition of nonprofits that actively encourage every Board member to make a personal gift. As the Foundation explains, “While time and talent on the board are necessary, board members’ personal financial contribution to the nonprofits they serve is crucial.”

We sincerely thank our Trustees for their commitment and their generosity to ensure success is clearly possible.

All year round our supporters make contributions, and our members renew their membership dues and many add an additional donation to their payment.

During the Annual Giving campaign, this same group gives once again. Vendors offer discounts, companies make inkind donations, grants are awarded, and organizations and individuals sponsor activities and our participation in concours d’elegance and local events. Families, businesses and conventions book banquets at the Museum. Visitors – local, national and international – purchase admission tickets, generating our most significant source of revenue.

All of this is why the Museum continues to progress forward and receives notable recognition year after year. Most recently, it received a 2018 TripSavvy Editor’s Choice Award and was one of 1,400 award recipients from a pool of 60,000 restaurants, hotels and attractions worldwide.

The Museum celebrated its 29th Anniversary because of the generosity of so many people and organizations, the efforts of our Board, the good work of our staff and volunteers, and our scores of visitors.

The Museum is a very fortunate organization. I extend heartfelt appreciation to all of you and wish you good health, happiness and prosperity in the New Year.

Please Help Us through the Power of Your Support

A NN UAL GIV I N G C A MPA I GN Power is a word heard frequently. We can’t think of anything more meaningful than the power of your support – it influences the success of the Museum year after year. Our Annual Giving Campaign is underway and we are asking for your help.

The Museum accomplished several key goals in 2018, thanks to the generosity of all of our donors during the 2017 annual giving campaign.

Through your gift this year, we can keep the Museum progressing forward.

After a trial run, our Second Thursday Talks became a monthly program.

Precious Metal magazine is now available in a

digital format making it easy to read anywhere and anytime (it’s still in print for those who prefer to turn pages).

The Museum continues to be top rated by visitors on TripAdvisor.

Repairs were made to our Theatre, HVAC, and fire alarm systems, and a new computer server was installed.

We celebrated the Museum’s 29th Anniversary in November.

With the 30th Anniversary on the horizon, the Board of Trustees under the direction of Chairman Ranson Webster is studying the next chapter of the Museum’s future.

It’s evident Your Support is Powerful. Let’s make sure the Museum remains a special place to visit, to learn and to be inspired and entertained. Please join us in making a personal or corporate gift during the 2018 annual giving campaign, which will continue through the first quarter of 2019.

Donations can be made by mailing a check, calling the Museum at (775) 333-3900 with your credit card information or going to automuseum.org.

All of us – Board members, staff and volunteers – are deeply honored by your support.

SKYLINER HARDTOP FOR 1957

REMEMBERING FORD’S

By Robert Tate, Automotive Historian and Researcher Images Courtesy of Robert Tate’s Collection/Ford Motor Company Published 07.25.2018

In 1957, Ford Motor Company sales increased dramatically, and for the first time in many years, the Ford nameplate regained the first place sales spot from Chevrolet. New for 1957 was the great-looking and exciting Fairlane 500 Skyliner Retractable Hardtop model which proved very popular. The vehicle cost $2,945 and was the highest priced model in Ford’s lineup.

Today, these cars have become classics and very collectible for automotive enthusiasts worldwide.

The vehicle cost $2,945 and was the highest priced model in Ford’s lineup.

The Ford retractable models were manufactured at assembly plants in Dearborn, Michigan; Mahwah, New Jersey; Louisville, Kentucky; Kansas City, Missouri; and San Jose California. Ford’s advertising called it “The exciting new Ford Skyliner… World’s Only Hide-Away Hardtop,” and they were introduced to the public in dealer showrooms on April 18, 1957. Ford said this about the new retractable hardtop during its introduction: “Here is the car the whole world has long dreamed about, the world’s only HideAway Hardtop. Touch the magic button and the Hide-Away roof vanishes into the rear deck and you’re sitting in the dreamiest

convertible under the sun.”

Ford designers and engineers had worked together for five years in secrecy to design a vehicle that offered great styling and innovative engineering. The operation of the retractable top was very simple. During the time of operation, the driver would touch the top button, electric locks would release in the trunk lid, and the roof would rise up and back out of the way. Then, locks would automatically release in the top area, which would swing back and down into the trunk.

The trunk area would close and lock itself.

Within 48-50 seconds, the model converted from a closed hardtop to an open-air vehicle.

The Ford Skyliner

also represented the beginning of a new era in automotive designs.

Spacious styling with handsome appointments for both the driver and passengers packaged in a truly great-looking car.

The models were manufactured in 12 new single colors or 13 new two-tone color styles.

Unfortunately, the Skyliner models were plagued with problems, including issues with the retractable top that sometimes did not work at all. In addition, drivers could have problems with the luggage space when traveling. If the luggage was not properly stored, the retractable top would sometimes damage the luggage or vice versa.

The Ford Skyliner was only manufactured for three years from 1957-1959. The 1957 Ford Skyliner retractable model was a unique mid-1957 arrival, based on earlier developmental engineering by the Continental Division. Ford sold 20,766 retractable models in 1957, however, sales would begin to taper off, because they cost $340 dollars more than a Fairlane Sunliner convertible priced at $2,605. Ford Rouge News on June 21,1957 said, “In May, one out of 12 Ford cars sold was a convertible, either a conventional convertible with a fabric top or the Skyliner with a steel top that retracts into the trunk area. More than 5,000 people have purchased the Skyliner since it was introduced two months ago.�

The Ford Skyliner was only manufactured for three years from 1957-1959.

In conclusion, Ford hit a home run with their styling in 1957, which was proven later by sales figures. Some of the individuals that were a part of the 1957 Ford designs were George Walker, vice president for Ford Styling, along with Frank Hershey, Joe Oros, Bill Boyer and other Ford designers.

typically detailing an intriguing “hunt” for the car.

The hunt includes correspondence with owners, internal memos about the chase and negotiations, and notations from Bill Harrah.

The file for the Museum’s 1957 Ford was surprisingly small and devoid of the items that weave an interesting story. It indicates the Ford was purchased

by Harrah’s Automobile Collection from Kruse Classic Auction Company of Auburn, Indiana. A Kruse card shows it was lot number 1133 and the purchase price was $5,300, however, the card is not dated.

An internal memo dated January 9, 1978, gives instructions to recipients to add the 1957 Ford Retractable Hardtop, equipment number 424, to various “antique car list books.” Another memo dated February 6, 1978, advises the car has arrived and is located next to the wash rack. Both memos have a “cc” to “Mr. Harrah.”

While there wasn’t the usual depth of correspondence on record about the 1957 Ford Retractable Hardtop, clearly it would have been on the wish list for the collection. This model featured an innovative design and was produced for only three years, 1957 – 1959. It was acquired shortly before Mr. Harrah’s passing on June 30, 1978.

Fords, along with Franklins, Packards and Pierce-Arrows, were favorites of Mr. Harrah. For these marques, Harrah’s Automobile Collection included a model for each year of production and for some there were several models for a given year. The collection featured Fords from 1903 to 1977, the year before Harrah’s death.

AWARDS & RECOGNITION

We’re excited to announce that the Museum won the TripSavvy 2018 Editors’ Choice Award for Best Specialty Museum.

TRIPSAVVY AWARD

TripSavvy is ranked one of the top-10 travel information sites in the world. The founders of TripSavvy said they had no idea who to trust for travel advice. That’s why they created their online travel website, which is written by experts, not anonymous reviewers, and it reaches eight million readers each month.

The TripSavvy Editors’ Choice Awards are unlike any other travel honor on the internet. They use a combination of data and real, human vetting to recognize the very best restaurants, hotels, and attractions they cover – all from a pool of 60,000 businesses.

The result: Out of the 60,000, only 1,400 businesses worldwide passed the machine and human test, and our Museum is one of them!

100% GIVING BOARD AWARD

Congratulations to the Museum’s Board of Trustees for once again earning the 100% Giving Board Award.

Every year since 2008 the Community Foundation of Western Nevada has presented 100% Giving Board Awards in recognition of nonprofits which actively encourage their Board members to make a personal financial gift to the organization’s operating fund. The Foundation states, “While time and talent on the board are necessary, board members’ personal financial contribution to the nonprofits they serve is crucial.”

Each organization receives a certificate with a star for each year they’ve received the award.

The Museum’s certificate features nine stars, indicating the Board has earned this award every year since it was introduced.

The Foundation sends the list of awarded organizations to donors, fund holders, community leaders, and other grant-making bodies in our area to make sure anyone and everyone knows these organizations and Board members are working together for our community and personally demonstrate their belief in the work being done.

Congratulations was offered by the Foundation to all 2018 Giving Board members who support their chosen cause and the mission of their organizations by making an annual gift. “You understand your role as a board member, and you are commended for your commitment,” said the Foundation.

“ It was a real surprise to find an

THE MUSEUM receives occasional inquiries about the

Steinway piano in the lobby, which was donated to the Museum from the Harrah Estate. Mr. Harrah purchased a ranch next to Rancharrah. The former owners left the piano behind and it resided in the vacant ranch house until it was donated to the Museum.

In July 2018, the piano captured the attention of a visitor, Jean Newton, executive director of the Music Conservatory of Westchester, in White Plains, New York. As she said, “It was a real surprise to find an antique Steinway in your lobby!”

Newton’s research revealed that the serial number on the piano, 267798, indicates it was built in 1929. The piano is a Steinway model OR, one of their series of player grand pianos.

Steinway did not install the player mechanism in these instruments, but sold the finished pianos to Aeolian, a company that specifically manufactured player organs and pianos, which were extremely popular in the early 20th century. Aeolian made the necessary modifications to these Steinways and installed the player mechanism.

Newton reported that one of Steinway’s most notable recent accomplishments is a fabulous new electronic player piano, the Spirio (www.steinway.com/spirio).

IS THERE A CONNECTION BETWEEN STEINWAY AND MOTORCARS?

In 1887, Gottlieb Daimler met William Steinway, son of Henry E. Steinway, founder of Steinway & Sons.

The two entered into business together and on September 29, 1888, Steinway founded the Daimler Motor company in Long Island, New York, to import Daimler engines to the U.S. The Museum’s 2018 history symposium featured the 1893 Chicago’s World’s Columbian Exposition and it was interesting to read that sales of the American Daimler engine were bolstered by demonstrations at this World’s Fair.

William Steinway had ambitious plans for motorized vehicles in the United States and was quoted in an 1895 newspaper interview, “The cars which we intend to produce for the American market will be capable of carrying between two and four people and will be driven by engines with between 2 ½ and 3 ½ hp. Each car will have four different speed settings: 3 ½, 6, 9, and 14 miles per hour. The fuel – petroleum – costs about one cent per hp and hour, making the automobile considerably less expensive than horse power.”

“ In addition to being an innovative marketer, establishing

the Steinway & Sons showroom at the entrance to one of America’s leading music and cultural centers, Steinway Hall, William was a true modern day Renaissance man.

“

Unfortunately, Steinway died in 1896 before the motorcar was built. His family sold their shares in Daimler to

General Electric Company in 1898, after which the company was restructured and renamed the Daimler Manufacturing Company. The company focused on production of light trucks, buses and boats and imported cars from Daimler in Europe to America. Efforts were refocused again in 1904, moving away from boats and continuing with plans for production of motorcars. The first American Mercedes was introduced in 1905, which was primarily a copy of the European Mercedes 45 hp.

The Smithsonian reports, “In addition to being an innovative marketer, establishing the Steinway & Sons showroom at the entrance to one of America’s leading music and cultural centers, Steinway Hall, William was a true modern day Renaissance man. A great industrialist and visionary, he was responsible for building the company town Steinway Village in 1870, founded the Daimler Motor Company on Long Island, and was head of the Subway Commission which planned the New York City subway system.”

Smithsonian’s collections include William Steinway’s diary of meticulous entries from 1861 to just weeks before his death.

NOVEMBER 8, 2018

29TH ANNIVERSARY PARTY

Victories, accomplishments and gratitude was the theme of the celebration. President and Executive Director Jackie Frady thanked the people and organizations who made another successful year possible, and thanked Boeger Winery and Roundabout Catering and Party Rentals for helping to sponsor the party.

She recognized and thanked Museum members of 20 or more years, Trustees, staff and volunteers; announced awards; and spoke about various programs offered in 2018, including the award-winning annual history symposium. The highlight of the evening was the 22nd annual raffle car drawing.

(left) To offer a sampling of what guests experience at the Museum’s award-winning symposiums, Jackie Frady welcomed special guest Henry Ford.This was a brief Chautauqua performance by Doug Mishler, who is nationally recognized for bringing “history to life.”

Wanda Casazza, who was unable to attend the party, was sincerely thanked for donating the 1993 Corvette ZR-1 for the 2018 raffle. She and her late husband, Earl, were thanked again for donating a 1975 Ferrari in 2009 for the 2010 raffle.

RAFFLE SALES Raffle Car Committee Chair Tom Batchelor thanked his raffle committee, everyone who purchased tickets and volunteers and staff who sold tickets.

On behalf of the Museum, Ranson Webster, chairman of the Board of Trustees, received a presentation check for $39,500 from Tom Batchelor, representing net raffle ticket proceeds from the sale of 81,500 tickets.

The 2019 raffle car was unveiled and ticket sales commenced for a 2005 Chevrolet Corvette C6 2-Door Hatchback, with less than 66,000 miles. It’s equipped with a factory performance package with improved suspension and handling and heavy duty brakes. Aftermarket options include a Procharger Supercharger, custom exhaust and Lambo doors.

The Museum is looking for people to fill important volunteer positions.

It’s an ideal opportunity for those who enjoy working with the public and/or helping with important tasks.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES The Museum wants to grow its team of thoughtful individuals who share their time and skills. They volunteer for a variety of reasons – to give back to their community, to make a difference, to be helpful, to share or learn skills, to interact with people with common interests, to broaden their social circle or to try something new.

THERE ARE OPENINGS FOR THE FOLLOWING POSITIONS:

>

ADMISSION TICKET SALES CLERKS AND MUSEUM STORE SALES CLERKS Make a Great First and Lasting Impression. This is an ideal position for courteous people who enjoy working with the public, particularly visitors from across the country and around the world. Both positions are interchangeable and involve cash handling and processing transactions using a point of sale system. Most volunteers start in these positions and advance to other positions.

>

AUTO SHOP ASSISTANTS (AUTO CLEANERS) Get Up Close and Personal with Treasures. These volunteers keep the Museum’s valuable collection clean and dust-free. The position requires the ability to learn and follow special techniques, to carefully handle rare and collectible autos, and to work in the Museum without disturbing visitors.

>

DOCENTS (TRAINED TOUR GUIDES) Share Stories of Remarkable History. Docents present the Museum’s 90-minute, daily tours. This position requires the ability to learn, retain and present detailed, factual information. It’s perfect for people who enjoy spending time with the public and sharing information.

>

EVENT HOSTS Be an Evening Ambassador and Helpful Hand. Hosts work evening banquets and special events. They direct visitors, remain watchful of security and safety concerns, and help staff. This is a good match for someone with a pleasant personality, who can be flexible in meeting assigned needs and ones that arise as an event evolves.

The steps to becoming a volunteer include an application, interview, background and reference checks, placement and training. Volunteers pay annual dues of $15 per person and strive to contribute 80 hours of service annually with a goal of reaching 120 hours.

Monthly meetings help volunteers stay connected and informed, provide opportunities to ask questions and share input, and include the Museum’s Second Thursday Talks. In addition, volunteers coordinate social activities, such as movie nights and picnics. Each December, the Museum holds an annual holiday party to thank active volunteers and staff for their contributions, with a catered dinner hosted by the Board of Trustees.

“The Museum has terrific volunteers and we are very thankful for their generosity and thoughtfulness.

Volunteers share their skills, form lasting friendships, and make our time at the Museum enjoyable and rewarding,” said Museum President and Executive Director Jackie Frady. The JOIN OUR TEAM tradition of volunteerism began in 1993 when she created the volunteer program. Since then, volunteers have become an indispensable part of the organization by helping in many important areas.

To become a volunteer and a valuable member of the Museum team, please contact the Museum at (775) 333-9300.
