Photograph caption dated August 10, 1962 reads "Leggy Karen Parker rains dollar bills down onto herself as she rests in a wheelbarrow at the site of Galaxy Northridge Homes. Miss Parker, an actress appearing in the new production 'Kid Galahad,' is fetchingly dramatizing the claims by Palm Properties, 16005 Sherman Way, Van Nuys, that home buyers can save $1,000 by buying a Galaxy Home during the next two weeks, before prices are increased by that amount. A Galaxy Model is located at 16725 Nordhoff St., Northridge, for public inspection."
