Wanted - Carlson Olds (St Louis) License Plate Frame

Would anyone out there have a good useable metal license plate frame from Carlson Oldsmobile in St Louis. Would like to put one on my '70 442 W30 as it was the original dealership it was sold from. Thanks.

That would be great. I don't have any original documentation from Carlson Olds but I know that my '70 W30 was bought new in St Louis, so I'm assuming they were probably the main (or only) dealer at that time. Would really appreciate any leads you might be able to turn up.. Thanks.

So any St. Louis Olds dealer? In business in 1970 of course.....


Where did you get the Carlson Olds reference? Just curious.


There is a local chapter of the Oldsmobile club here also but I'm not sure if any members are on this site. In need to join myself.......

The Carlson Olds reference came just from doing web searches of Olds Dealers in St Louis in 1970 - and they were the only one that I could come up with. I have the broadcast sheet for the car but that doesn't have any dealer info. I tracked the car back to the 2nd owner and he was absolutely certain that the guy he bought it from in St Louis bought it locally. So yes I can't be sure it was Carlson Olds.
If there were other Olds dealers in St Louis in '70 then I'd be happy with any period frame I could get. Thanks.
