Title: 1940 Plymouth ads
Post by: RC Drown on April 27, 2012, 07:02:38 PM
Here are some scans of some ads that I have collected.  I have many more, but my scanner won't do the large ones

This is a reduced copy of a full page ad out of the "Saturday Evening Post" in 1944.  There was a whole series of these ads by the same artist showing the dependability of the 1940 Plymouths.  I think I have all of them, but this one is the only one that I have had reduced.  There are even ads by this same artist that shows how the 1940 Plymouths helped each branch of the Military and railroad during the war

I have a framed "centerfold" (2 page) 1940 Plymouth ad featuring a green 4 door sedan hanging in my garage.

Pat - I have the same two page green 4-door ad framed.  Closest I can find to my green 1940 two door sedan!

Mine is similar to the middle one, but the man is standing on the right side of the ad, and wearing a hat.
