What is dagmar bumpers?

Dagmar bumpers were a style of automobile bumper popular in the United States in the late 1940s and early 1950s. They were characterized by their large, curving shape, which resembled the bosom of actress Dagmar, for whom they were named. The term "Dagmar bumpers" was often used as a synonym for any large, chrome-plated bumper from the period. These bumpers were particularly popular on American cars of the era, which were known for their big, brash designs. Dagmar bumpers were phased out in the 1950s, as safety regulations began to require more impact-resistant designs. However, they remain a popular nostalgic touch among car enthusiasts today.
