Dolly Dimples (Utah)

Dolly Dimples was a 1909 publicity stunt in Salt Lake City by the Salt Lake Herald-Republican newspaper, involving a pretty girl in a new automobile, in this case an American Traveler. A $500 reward was offered for the "capture" of Miss Dolly Dimples. Miss Dimples was played by a woman identified as Jennie Curry. The contest was eventually accused of being rigged, and Jennie Curry, L. V. Curry, and F. K. Ricker were arrested and returned to Utah on a charge of conspiracy to defraud. They were tried and found not guilty on a technicality.
