Special 40th anniversary of the Packard, Automotive News Annual
BigKev 2008/10/9 12:10
This is special issue of Automotive News commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Packard Motor Car Company in 1940. Packard provided hardbound personalized copies, with the dealer or distributor's name imprinted on the cover of this special issue, for use of their sales and service staff, and for display in their show rooms and customer waiting areas. It is interesting in that there is a good history of the Packard Motor Car Company to that time. Also interesting are the advertisements from vendors to Packard and other businesses in the automobile industry congratulating the company on its accomplishments.

For those interested, this publication has ads from many Packard vendors, which probably supplied parts to custom coachwork companies as well.
