“Lady, make up your husband’s mind!” Nash has apparently decided that buying a car requires a small domestic management position.

This original 1940 advertisement features a blue sedan, colorful scenes, and pitches for the Weather Eye and Arrow-Flight ride. The illustrations are lovely; the gender assumptions are very much showing their age. A good page for someone who can enjoy prewar car art while making fun of an advertising department that thought this was how adults should communicate.

THE DETAILS:

• Original period magazine page, sold unframed.
• Approximate size: 10 × 13.25 inches; portrait orientation.

Condition: Vintage paper may show age toning and minor handling wear; please review the photos for this item's specific condition.

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.
