Do you know what connection this candy has to the automobile industry (and B-29 bombers) ? Wink

I think I read some time ago or maybe someone told me they were made in a factory that made cars and planes, but I could be wrong.

Great hint Michael. The Tootsie Rolls were, and still are, I believe, made in the same Chicago factory that the the Tucker was built earlier (1948).

Mike; this quiz is just plane riveting! (sorry).  What a shame there isn't another 1 H.P. Trabant SS coupe picture left to offer as a prize.
