This date in automotive history
During dedication ceremonies marking the observance of Tulsa's Golden Jubilee Week, citizens prepared to entomb a new 1957 Plymouth Belvedere Sport Coupe as part of a time capsule buried on the southeast corner of the Tulsa County courthouse lawn. Why would anyone want to bury a new car? Tulsarama chairman Lewis Roberts Jr. said the committee decided on the event after looking for a method of acquainting the citizens of the 21st century with a suitable representation of 1957 civilization. "In our judgment," commented W.A. Anderson, Jubilee chairman, "Plymouth is a true representative of automobiles of this century, with the kind of lasting appeal that should still be in style 50 years from now." Supplied through the cooperation of the Plymouth Division of Chrysler and Tulsa area Plymouth dealers, the Belvedere has remained buried since June 15, 1957. As part of the Tulsarama festivities, citizens were asked to guess what the population of Tulsa would be in the year 2007. The guesses were then recorded on microfilm and sealed in a steel container buried with the car. When the car and artifacts are excavated, the person whose guess is closest to Tulsa's 2007 population is to be awarded the Belvedere. If that person is dead, the car is to be awarded to his or her heirs. The event was documented in the July 22, 1957, issue of Life magazine.
