Hands off! Or not? (Upd. White Gloves!)

When visiting a car show, we all too often see truly beautiful cars that have a small sign behind the window. Most of the times they read something like: "Don't touch me!" occasionally followed by: "I'm not a lady." We do understand these signs because when you have just washed and polished your shiny antique, nothing is more annoying than wiping off the greasy fingers of passersby. But it came as a welcome relief when we spotted a totally different sign on this 1939 Oldsmobile. But guess what happened? Nobody touched it!
