Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad that is for Autolite Spark Plugs. This ad also has a view of an angled race car on the track in action. The text says that “When you’re racing 500 miles for a $177,000 jackpot, you don’t scrimp on spark plugs. That’s why 1968 Indy winner Bobby Unser used Autolite plugs. Like you buy. About $1 each”. The text then says that “First place in the 1968 Indy 500 to Bobby Unser. His time: a record 152.882 miles per hour. His spark plug: Autolite. Second place to Dan Gurney: Autolite plugs. Third place to Mel Kenyon: Autolite plugs. Fourth place to Dennis Hulme: Autolite plugs. Fifth place to Lloyd Ruby: Autolite plugs. Year after year, it’s the same story. The hottest, most expensive cars use Autolite spark plugs“.
