Actually circa 1950. The cars in front of the Newberry store are: The white car behind the black coupe is a '50 Mercury. The car behind the Merc' is a '50 Nash. The next one is a '50 Chevy. The car at lower right at the red cross sign is a '49 Oldsmobile convertible.

Circa 1950 actually. Several of the cars date from no earlier than 1949. [ via OSU Special Collections & Archives : Commons's flickriver --jamu98765 ]

Interesting point of fact, the names of the streets where I live are all named after astronauts....Lovell, Schirra, Glenn, Wolfe, so on and so forth. Houses broke ground in 1970, we were able to inhabit in 1972. A lasting tribute, I'd say.

Correcting myself. We were first occupants on street, and that was 9/8/73.
