TABOR: Just fewer people to my mind. We see what we want to see.
AKPATTI: There must have been a sharp cookie in marketing.Women have had the right to vote since 1869 in Wyoming. This ad is dated 1923. The Nineenth Amendment wasn't ratified til 8-18-1920, when it became the law of the land. Mississippi didn't ratify it til 1984...
Love that ad..I think things have changed a bit in the car sale business...seems the used cars with 50,000 miles are going for just about as much as the new ones!
'When advertising was interesting' and cars were elegant! I'll have one too!
ReplyDeleteAnd when nobody thought about fossil fuels and pollution. Oh,the time of innocence.
ReplyDeleteActually catering to the female buyer?? Considering the time in history that is amazing. Were we even able to vote then??
ReplyDeleteGRANNYMAR: We'd have a great time!

You were able to vote back then? Are sure Patti? That was an awful long time ago. Sorry...I couldn't help myself.

ReplyDeleteAn imaginative and seductive ad. And you are right -- targeting women was a bold move for the time.
