If you looked over at your Brooklins, you just disqualified yourself! But if, unassisted, you chose the central B as being NOT-Henry J, you are the master of trivia, the captain of lost brands, and probably yearn to own a Hudson, Nash, or even a Kaiser.

Sold through some Sears stores, primarily in the southeast and southwestern United States, for 1952 and 1953 models (very slight differences), these were Henry Js that carried every possible "made by Sears" additions. Batteries, tires, etc. carried the Sears name and so did the car, with its different grill. The Sears products also received Kaiser's advances for the Henry J before the Henry J did, including standard trunk lids (Henry Js had to be loaded through the doors to behind the back seat for much of their production) and tail lights in the fins. Kaiser sold about 2,500 Allstates of the approximately 350,000 Henry Js over the 1951-54 production.

But the Henry J was soon to follow the Frazer as Kaiser proved unable to break into the ranks of American automobile manufacturers. Production of the Henry J stopped in 1954, and Kaiser soon followed, at least in the United States.

These three fine 1:43 models are somewhat uncommon today, and I treasure mine.
