The subject here is the 1950 Studebaker Land Cruiser, a named model that marked this car as a specific trim in the company's postwar lineup. Studebaker, based in South Bend, Indiana, was one of the few independent automakers still building cars in 1950, and its streamlined bodies, developed with help from designer Raymond Loewy, stood out on American roads that year. A manufacturer's photograph like this one was typically made to show the car's lines for company publications and dealer materials, so it reflects how Studebaker chose to present its new models to buyers.
