Description
1970 Ski-Doo – Full color 9 3/4″ x 13″ ad that is for the Ski-Doo Snowmobiles. The ad picture shows a man going slightly uphill at a fast rate of speed and he is airborne at the moment. The ad headline tells us to “Take it from people who know, Ski-Doo is the one rugged enough to conquer the pole!”. It then says that “Last year, four men on Ski-Doo snowmobiles rewrote a page of history. For 44 days, they faced the worst the Artic could offer, 835 miles later, the U.S. Air Force told them, ‘You’ve reached the North Pole. Wherever you go from here, is South’. If a snowmobile can take that kind of punishment, it has to be good. But being good isn’t good enough. Once again, we’ve gone all out to go one better than the rest. Better performance. Ski-Doo has more dependable power for climbing, towing, funning around. Better ride. Smoother over the bumps. More stable in the turns. And no snowmobile is so light-footed – over deep, deep snow. Better selection. For 1970, we offer the Ski-Doo series, each with a totally different personality. If it’s luxury you’re after we have it. If it’s economy, we have a Ski-Doo so low-priced, many people are buying two. If you want the number one choice in snowmobiles, in high fashion winter sportswear and accessories, see your Ski-Doo dealer. He’ll show you the 1970 reasons why you go one better when you go Ski-Doo“.
