Both look to be 1960 models. |

1959, not 1960 |

This helps people to imagine all those black and white ads in real life! 4 door (sedan?) left, coupe right -- Last edit: 2008-04-22 04:48:57 |

Both are Series 62s - 4 dr hardtop sedan and 2 dr hardtop coupe. |

Not sure of the white car on the left but the visible center trim of the rear seat back on the blue car is that of a "Coupe de Ville", not a "Series 62" coupe. On that basis I would guess the white car to be also a "De Ville", i.e. the 6-window "Sedan de Ville" ...unless these cars were 1st and 2nd prizes, in which case, IMHO, the white sedan would appear to have been the 2nd prize and, consequently, one of the cheaper Cadillac models in the range! Did anyone see the movie ? |

Well at least one saw the movie (me) since the pictures are there  They do not really detail the role of the Cadillac here, from what I remember. So identification by prize value is not possible... and anyway it is just a movie .gif ";)") -- Last edit: 2008-04-22 14:51:04 |

From the vintage contest ads I've seen, it's likely they're supposed to be one prize. Note the colors- powder-pink sedan and black coupe- "WIN!!! His and hers Cadillacs!" would be the likely tagline. If there would be a first-prize Cadillac and a second-prize car, second would likely be a cheaper GM car from a different division; GM probably didn't want Cadillacs to be seen as "second prize" and would likely supply the other car to the contest operators at a very advantageous price....(of course the winner would still have to pay taxes based on MSRP...) |
