Description
Plymouth – Full color 9 3/4″ x 13 3/4″ ad that is for the 1941 Plymouth. This ad is a large cartoon which shows a Red 1941 Plymouth parked on a street filled with walkers and people coming out of stores and others staring down from their bedrooms to see what everyone is looking at. There is a banner across the top of the ad saying “See America’s New Low-Priced LUXURY CAR” and, I think, there are 16 different conversations happening. The conversations are “Gosh, Dad, if we had a car like that, I’d wash it every week for nothing! Look at it shine”, This new Powermatic Shifting sold me, Mac. Of course, Louise fell for the new style and two-tone upholstery” and “Do you mean to tell me that’s a low-priced car? Look at those lines, Helen”. There are a lot more there to see. The ad text says that you should “Treat yourself to more driving pleasure this year in a Big 1941 Plymouth! You enjoy 19 great advancements…including New Artistry of Design…New Fashion-Tone Interior…New Powermatic Shifting with vast reductions in driving effort…new 4-Way Step-Up in Performance, giving you new mastery of hills and traffic. Plymouth’s the ‘One’ for ’41…see your Plymouth dealer”.
