A rhinoceros holding tires is a remarkably direct way of saying “rugged.” Nobody needed a second meeting about that one.
This original 1950s Armstrong Rhino-Flex advertisement features the “Rugged Is Right” headline and the company’s period guarantee pitch. The animal illustration gives it a fun presence in a garage or workshop. The guarantee belongs to the historical tire ad; I’m selling the original paper, which is considerably easier to ship than either a tire or a rhinoceros.
THE DETAILS:
- Original period magazine page, sold unframed.
- Approximate size: 10 × 13.5 inches; portrait orientation.
- Approximate date: 1950s.
Condition: Vintage page with mild age toning and light edge wear; inspect photos for details. The exact page pictured is the one you will receive.
I carefully trim each page, place it in a protective sleeve with a sturdy backing board, and pack it with bubble wrap in a sturdy box. You’ll receive the original page shown in the photos, not a reproduction.
Framing: Vintage magazine sizes vary. Use the measurement-mat photo as a size reference, and choose a larger frame with a mat cut to fit this particular page.
I white-balance the photos to show the original colors as accurately as possible. Colors can still vary with your screen settings.
