It was discussed here earlier, but it bears repeating:

  McBride Auto Ads

These people (upon request) will send you auto ads removed from old magazines. I requested Land Rover ads. I got 38 to choose from. The black/white ones are $2 each and you must pay the postage ($2.81 each way).

So, Jan said I could get 5 and it was a hard choice. There were more like 8 that I really liked.

Went down to the local frame-it-yourself store and put some matboard frames around them. This was a fun adventure -- the people told you how to do it and only charged you for what you used.

I now have mounted in Land Rover Green artboard frames:

• What does a Land-Rover do on its weekends off? (It works. Hard!)

• Where do old Land-Rovers go? (To work.)

• 40,000 skilled British workers emigrate every year.

• Back in 1951, some people thought the new Land-Rover was a bit expensive.

• Land-Rover for Smooth Roads.

• I trust my life to my Land-Rover every time it rains.

These advertisements were produced during the British Leyland era and I like their subtle sense of humor.
