Market commentary

What was Jack Benny's car? It was a Maxwell, and if you're old enough to remember Jack Benny the name Maxwell is firmly implanted in the depths of your synapses. That may have had some effect here among the television and movie cars of the Bothwell collection but even at that this isn't unreasonable for this sound if aged 2-cylinder example.
