The original ad claims owners were getting 20, 21, 22 miles per gallon and up! Plus the owners can’t get over the road hugging, whirlwind “Get-up-and-go” !

Really, you have to love an old Mercury. The brand had a true sense of style -very smooth, very elegant.
I found a 1941 Mercury rusting away into a field not far from my house, and took some really nice photos of it. It still looks great.

I love these adverts and posters! Goes to show how much life has changed since then eh? Can you imagine a car advert like this one in this day and age?
