Smiling Sam the Auto Man

This was a character in one of the episodes of The Great Gildersleeve radio show. Sam owned a car lot and conned Gildersleeve into test driving a Mercedes convertible, which caused friction between Gildy and his buddies. Interestingly, the standard pronunciation of the car is mer-CED-es, but on this program they call it MER-ced-es.
