Why not call the phone number on the poster and see if anyone answers? If they do ask them.

 

1) The Popcorn Wagon looks like one of those over-the-top T-bucket spinoff showcars from the late '60's through early '70's.
2) Most 3-day shows are Fri-Sat-Sun. If you google <19XX August calendar> you can narrow it down. 1975 matches, for example. Others too, probably.

How's that for a start?

 

The Pleasure Seekers featuring Suzy Quatro were active from 1964-1973. There's a window, but I'm guessing Gary is right with the 1975 date.

 

Way before my time.
Wiki shows the “Pleasure Seekers” were from 1964 - 1968. In 1969, they morph into the band called “Cradle” (until 1973)... so that may be a starting point on time frame...
Murat Theatre (now called Old National Centre) is a performing arts theatre, hard to image a car show there in its past.

 

I can't recall the popcorn wagon but I showed my Nomad there in 1967. It won best use of color when it was painted yellow/green. Pretty crazy place, the show was on 3 or maybe 4 floors. Cars were taken to their respective floor by freight elevator. The show was held at the same time as the National Drag Races at IRP.

 

Thanks for the detailed reply. I don’t some digging and it looks like it’s from 69.

I googled Ron Huggler in Indianapolis. He still lives there, will turn 82 on the 29th of this month. His address and phone number were easy to find.

 

Here's the band...'64 to '73

 

They need me...
