Description
Volkswagen Bug – Full color 10″ x 13 1/2″ ad that has a drawing of a VW Convertible with the top down parked behind a tree. This Volkswagen is lime green and is sitting there with the top down. The tree is blocking the interior so we can’t see if there is anyone inside. There is a French Poodle sitting on the top of the back and the tree has a heart carved into it with an arrow through it and the name VW in the center. The ad words say “Owning a Volkswagen…is like being in love”. The bottom of the ad though says “Volkswagenwerk Gmbh Wolfsburg Germany” so I would suspect that this was before they had become as American as they seemed later.
