The preceding statement is from a souvenir booklet given to people touring the Studebaker factory in 1950. Studebaker\u2019s downtown plant was at its peak at this time. The 125-acre factory site employed just under 24,000 people and produced 343,166 automobiles that year.<\/p>\n

This exhibit will show how the factory appeared during the early 1950s and the materials and methods Studebaker used to build its automobiles. All of the photographs are from the Studebaker National Museum Archives.<\/p>\n
