Vintage advertisements are masterpieces of professional persuasion. Madison Avenue employed the finest illustrators, graphic artists, photographers, copy writers and celebrities of their day. They are ephemeral reminders of the products of days past – some that are still marketed today, others that are curious historical artifacts, and still others that are quite humorous.

Vintage ads can be framed for your own home. Given as gifts, they can make a truly personal connection to a hometown, career, hobby, pet, car, etc. Original vintage ads also put that finishing touch to any collection.

Item: This is an original vintage ad. It is not a photocopy and it is not the original artwork of the ad agency. I am not selling the cameras, cars or the countries pictured on them. The sources may be from popular magazines, trade magazines, pamphlets, playbills, newspapers, etc. Your vintage ad, of course, does not have the watermark "VintageAdorama".

Measurement: Measurements are made from paper edge to edge.

Trimming: Trimming is minimal (if at all) in order to provide ample margins for matting and/or framing. Therefore, rough edges and staple-holes may be present as the image is scanned to look like it will when matted and/or framed. Mat and frame not included.

Condition: This is an original vintage ad. It was printed at least 20 - 90 years ago. Small corner folds, foxing ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxing ), small edge tears, eyebrow creases and other minor wear may be present for ephemera of this age.

Shipping and Handling: Your vintage ad is shipped in a protective plastic sleeve within a mailing tube that fits into most standard-sized mailboxes to prevent folding. Additional vintage ads with same package shipped for no additional postage.

Provenance Document: Original date of publication and source documented.

Return Policy: Satisfaction guaranteed or 100% refund.
