Our History
"Pap" Haskins...
...opened his new car dealership in Wellesley at the tail end of the most prosperous decade we'd ever known. Sirloin was sold for $0.39 a pound! Mary Pickford was making a fortune as America's Sweetheart, Duke Ellington and his orchestra were playing at New York's Cotton Club, Coco Chanel introduced rows and rows of pearl necklaces. Passage on one of the great ocean liners was booked a year in advance. Bing Crosby sang with the Rhythm Boys and the Paul Whiteman Band. Summer boats still ran to Nantasket.
