Classic Car Culture Lecture
Sunday, May 18 from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m.
Presented by the Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum at the Stepping Stones Museum for Children Multimedia Gallery. James Melton was known as ‘America’s Favorite Tenor’ from the 1920s to the 1950s. His fame as a singer, however, was eventually eclipsed by his passion for collecting classic, antique, and vintage cars. This well-illustrated lecture by automotive historian John J. O’Leary IV will revisit the life of the renown tenor and car collector and explore his automotive history through documents, photographs, and artifacts dating back to the 1940s.
