1961 General Motors Motorama  (3 min)
A short clip from a longer 1961 General Motors film, this shows various GM models, but

this is an instructional filmstrip from a master Pontiac salesman on how to capture potential
customers, how to treat them, and of course how to wrap up the sale.

1964 Pontiac Sales Training Filmstrip – Styling (23 min)
From the same series as above, this filmstrip is much longer, and informed the Pontiac Sales
Force of the all-new 1964 Pontiac lineup. Includes a brief segment on the new G.T.O.
