There are 2 different taxicabs here : the one on the large picture is not a 1952 but a 1953 DeSoto Powermaster 8 passenger taxicab ( S-16) , the one on the thumbnail is a 1952 DeSoto DeLuxe 8 passenger taxicab ( S-15) |

The Waters Manufacturing Corp. - originally James F. Waters, Inc., of San Francisco, California - manufactured these De Soto cabs in Detroit, Michigan. |
