Description
Three color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for their Steel-Vent Piston Rings. There is a VIP cartoon of a man who has burst his head through his running car and is looking back at the smoke filled with oil containers. As he sees that expensive mess he decides “So that’s where my money goes!” and the headline says that “Every extra quart is a warning!”. The text explains that “Your piston rings warn you when they need to be replaced” and goes on to discuss engine theory. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
