Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their Remington 60 de Luxe Auto – Home Electric Shaver. There is a picture of an outdoor scene where three sports cars are parked in a cluster. A well-dressed man has plugged his Remington into a Red Corvette and is proudly shaving away while an attractive blonde leans on the windshield and looks at him with awe. The headline says “Now! Shave as you go…Shave where you please!” and there are pictures of it being plugged into a cigarette lighter or into a regular outlet at home. As automobiles had just made the change from 6 volt to 12 volt systems, and many foreign cars had not changed yet, the ad mentions a “Choice of Models, 6 volt & 110 volt or 12 volt & 110 volt”. The text talks about some of the features and mentions that the makers of this product, Remington.
