Douglas Ad October 1959Full color 10″ x 13 1/2″ ad for the comfort of flying on a DC-8. There is a picture of a family of three taking a flight on one of these Jetliners and they are occupying a row of three seats. The father, on the aisle, is starting to doze off as he holds several books on his lap and the mother and child, both under blankets, are fast asleep. The headline claims that “Tourists call it…(and so will you!) ‘The world’s most comfortable jetliner!'”. The text includes positive comments from flyers of this plane and describes some of the joys of this jetliner. The ad also includes a list of airlines that have chosen to fly the DC-8.
