On the subject of marketing I posted;

Was PONTIAC allowed to put their name or logo on any war material like the 40mm field gun?

Was the original ad you found blacked out showing the ton and units they produced?

Its on the Chiefs head with the three factories ad.

Did they have a War Dept release on the back? Just curious.

TKS
The ad appears as published
no release cause it was in Life Magazine

check out the photo album for the thank you letters at the back

BTW
I bought a fine art print at SA for 45 bucks
Called Parke West Galleries with the Bar code from the back
They gave me a cert of auth and an appraisal of $3,950 (because I already had an account........ never expect a freebie, and sight unseen from a reputable dealer)

The appraisal is prolly way high in today's market but I love the print and I am going to keep it. (signed, numbered, framed and on hand made paper that is characteristic of the artist's work)
