    Are you sure it was 1957? That wagon looks like it's at least a '58

    No, I'm not sure. That's what the caption said. I suppose checking when the movie on the marquee came out could answer the question.

    Yup - EVERYWHERE in California. No triples.

    So, a Coronet Suburban? Like the red one in the brochure? The one in the pic certainly doesn't look like it.

    Could be a '57 or a '58 - they had the same body, new for the '57 model year. They would have debuted in the fall of 1956. And the '58 would have been out in the fall of '57.

    Here's a different shot of a '55 Dodge, taken off the internet. The different trims they had made them look a bit different. The one in Times Square I think might be the middle trim, which was called the 'Royal', which I think is what this one is, as well....
