Solid Gold Cadillac 36 “The Solid Gold Cadillac,” as its authors state, “is a fairy story, of Cinderella and the four ugly corporation directors.” Once upon a time, a sweet little old lady went down to Wall Street to attend a stockholder’s meeting. Once at the meeting, she asked so many embarassing questions that the chairman of the board put her to work to shut her up. But the deaf old soul refused to remain shut up, and in no time at all the ugly corporation directors shuttle her off to Washington to convince Big Ed. a member of the President’s cabinet, to send some defense contracts their way. At that point, the little old lady talks Big Ed into coming back home to regain control of the company and the fight is on. The cast included . . Narrator Dick Hiatt 7.
