...cash payments are more controversial than ever this year. Unlike 1975, when industry-wide rebates were last offered, this time hard-pressed dealers are being asked to bear some of the cost. For example, buyers of Oldsmobile Cutlass Supremes and Buick Regals will get $700 back-$400 from GM and $300 from the dealer. Ford's rebate plan, which ranges from $610 for a Fairmont to $1,769 on the four-door Mark VI, is similar...

They may have been stylistically uncertain, but they were powerful, and on seeing them, a leading New York dealer named Nierendorf gave Nevelson her first one-woman show, in 1941. She was past 40, an age when some artists start thinking not about their debuts but about their retrospectives...
