From my Oklahoma City postcard collection…
Walter E Allen moved from Detroit to Oklahoma City in early 1940. He had purchased the Chrysler and Plymouth distributorship for central and western Oklahoma. He operated out of this location at 13th and Harvey from 1946 through 1955. He retired in 1955 and moved to Florida.
I know that in 1956 this building became a Chevrolet dealership and I still remember going there to see the new 1958 Chevrolets!
And here is the building today, housing Able Rents and Sales.
