While shopping at the antique mall the other day, I bought a Better Homes & Garden magazine from February 1940. Eight years before I was born. We paid $4.50 cents for this magazine which sold for 10 cents back then. Anyway, this add is my absolute favorite and I am enjoying seeing what life and advertising was like back then. What a beautiful car, it looks like it could plow through any blizzard, doesn't it?
I'm going to post a few pictures/add over on my vintage blog. Hope you enjoy the nostalgic look back in time as much as I am. I'm having a ball with this magazine. It's a keeper..=).

We had a Nash in the early 1960s. To me it seemed so ancient (in my infantily memory). Couldn't wait to get a car with a squared off top instead of the old fashioned round top :) What did we get? A cool looking black Rambler.
That's infantile ... not infantily :)
Great ad and magazine! I have several old magazines myself I've saved just for the ads.
