The James Melton Autorama

The Civil War scene in the 3-D historic America the Beautiful mural room at the James Melton Autorama, located 8 miles south of Palm Beach on US 1.  the Cavalry charge is one of hundreds of brilliantly portrayed scenes the artist, Bernard Preston Thomas, has chosen to tell the story of the growth of our country.

One of Florida's many extinct attractions.

The Encirclement.  Surrounded by the Sioux Indians in the Dakotas, pioneer families make their stand for survival as they move Westward.  One of many Western scenes in the huge America the Beautiful mural room, James Melton Autorama, Hypoluxo, Florida, 8 miles south of Palm Beach on US 1.

The Lake Room.  This is a setting of indescribable beauty, featuring wax mannequins in dazzling costumes, dramatizing the romantic gay nineties' period among many of the world famous antique cars on exhibit at the colorful James Melton Autorama, Hypoluxo, Florida, 8 miles south of Palm Beach on U.S. 1.

  1. Nice to see this!

    James Melton was my father. (See my blog at jamesmeltonmusicalcareerantiquecars.blogspot.com.) There's a post on the Autorama 4/5/11.

    Also, the Palm Beach Post did a three-part story on the Autorama earlier this month (Nov. 2011).
