Description
Packards – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad that tells us that buying a Packard will be one of the most important days in a male’s life. The headline says “Speaking of red letter days..” and has drawings of four days that qualify as such. First there is a Christmas morning where a young boy sneaks downstairs and sees a red bicycle parked next to the tree just waiting for him. Next there is the person, now a man, carrying his bride across the threshold as the car with the “Just Married” sign on the back sits parked. Third there is a proud father standing at the window looking in as the nurse holds his newborn daughter. And last there is the man, bringing his wife and daughter to the front door to look out and see the Blue Packard that is now theirs, parked in front of the house.
