National Automobile Dealers Association, "America's Automobile Man" (1977) Hapax Legomena
-
- Society & Culture
In 1977, the National Automobile Dealers Association, a trade group for car dealers, released this promotional 7" record, extolling "America's Fifth Freedom: Freedom of Mobility." As the sleeve observes:
"Americans know about the 'four freedoms' - freedom of speech, freedom to worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear. But have you thought about what our life would be like without a fifth freedom - our freedom of mobility?"
"As Americans, we have the freedom to go where we want, when we want and how we want."
"That's pretty important, isn't it"?
