Description
VW Bug – Black and white 10″ x 13″ ad for how little they have changed over the years. There is a picture of a light-colored VW Bug sitting in the glow of three spotlights while the headline introduces “The ’51 ’51 ’53 ’54 ’55 ’56 ’57 ’58 ’59 ’60 ’61 Volkswagen.” The text explains that ever since they have started making Volkswagens they have put all of their time and effort with the same basic model. With this continuation of the same basic model, the usage of most of the same parts, production has become a very precise procedure and repair has become easier since the parts are there and the knowledge of one year’s car rolls over to the next year’s car.
