Description
Black and white 5 1/2″ x 13 3/4″ ad for Valvoline – The Original Pennsylvania Motor Oil. This ad has a picture of a very attractive young lady, dressed in a very stylish gown and standing next to a car. The ad has descriptions of several of the items in the ad; it mentions “Her Gown – custom-fashioned by Bergdorf-Goodman” and “The Motor Oil for her car – custom-made by Valvoline“. The text in the ad says that “To control its quality, Valvoline is refined in limited quantity from pure Pennsylvania crude oil. Every quart costs us more to make – costs you less to use. Naturally, Valvoline is not on sale everywhere, but you will find it at better dealers coast-to-coast. Sold always with this unconditional guarantee. The performance of Valvoline must completely satisfy you – or your money back”.
