Kilduffs History of the dealership that started at 3421 Greenmount Avenue.
I found early ads for Talbott dating all the way back to 1924 . The company went by the name ” Talbott Motor Company” and began with ads for used vehicles in the early days. An ad from 1929 listed several several cars including a Buick “6” for $ 79. I’m sure it wasn’t much but the thought of getting car for under $100. these days is odd.
By 1931, the ads showed Talbott was selling mainly Fords, although they still went by the name “Talbott Motor Company”. In 1936, Talbott showed two addresses , one being the one on Greenmount Avenue and a second at 6400 Harford Rd. Ads in the 1940’s for Talbott looking for mechanics mention Talbott as ” Baltimore’s oldest Ford Dealership”.
