Description
Mercury Comet – Full color 9 3/4″ x 13″ ad has several photos of a Red Two-Door. The top photo shows a car being driven on the high banked turns of a race track and has the headline claiming “Durability Champion! This Comet drove 100,000 miles at over 105 miles per hour!”. The other photo gives us a closer look at this car, resting and ready for action. This ad headline calls it the “Sales Champion! This is Comet’s Leap Year…sales almost doubled!” . The text gives more details about some of the races and rallies these cars have been in.
