Ed Yates & new 1953 Hudson car

This pic premiers at my site on The Yates Collection Page on July 11, 2007. It shows Ed Yates while he was a cameraman for WFIL. George Yates stated that the caption on the photo back reads: "WFIL-TV Auto Show: March 1. The WFIL-TV camera peers down inside the new 1953 Hudson, during the telecast!"

George stated: "I'm thinking this might have been taken during the fall of '52. Isn't that the time of year when the new cars come out? I wonder where (Studio B?) or when this shot was taken? this could have been prior to Bandstand itself - which was born in Oct 1953 w/Bob Horn!"
