O, Canada! Cars?




This would be a magazine ad from 1939 the proudly proclaims the marvels of Alberta, including the newly discovered oil reserves. Brought to us by the Automotive Industries of Canada, this was designed to spark interest in Canada's great greasy province. Of course even by 1939 there weren't that many Canadian automobile brands left. But Canada remains today a central focus of (what's left of) the North American auto industry, as well as our largest supplier of petrolium products. This is another classic print ad from AdClassix.
