| Details: | Beginning in mid-May the galleries of the Museum will be filled with “automotive orphans.” Known as “Orphan Cars,” this collection of cars, buses, and motorcycles represents discontinued marques and brands from across the motoring landscape. From the early days of motorized transportation to recent decades, a few examples include Packard, Hudson, Studebaker, Twin Coach, Cushman, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Mercury. An Orphan Car is any vehicle produced by a company marque or brand that has discontinued business entirely. “According to Old Cars Weekly, “Figures differ, but most historians agree that about 2,000 or more makes of cars and trucks flashed onto the scene, only to eclipse and fade into memory.”
