Description
Mercury Monterey S-55 2-door Hardtop – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for the performance given by the 1963 Mercurys. The ad has two pictures of what this Mercury can give you. The top picture is of the interior of a Mercury where a gloved male hand is shown shifting the gear shift and the bottom picture shows a Red Mercury Monterey S-55 2-door Hardtop spinning it’s back tires on a sandy surface. The ad headline between these pictures says “Shift to the real performer! Go Mercury!” and the ad text talks about the Marauder 390 V-8 engine and the “4-on-the-floor” stick shift transmission. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
