Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 12 1/2″ ad for their Hair Tonic for Men. The top picture in the series is a close-up of a woman’s eyes looking toward the headline which asks the question “What kind of man uses Vaseline Hair Tonic“. The next pictures in this series show a man driving his Alfa Romero with the top down on a curvy road in the Pyrenees where a woman whose car is out of control goes flying past. She screams “No brakes!” which causes him to spring into action. He downshifts and pulls ahead of her, cutting in front so that he can slow down and bring her car to a safe stop. He gets out and stands by her car basking in her adoration as she looks at his head, every car still in place. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
