The U.S. Detective Series "MANNIX’ ran from 1967-75, and featured the Oldsmobile Toronado captured in these Barris Kustom City photographs. Star Mike Connors pictured alongside George Barris and the Oldsmobile in one photograph. Each large photograph has the Barris Kustom City stamps on the reverse.
