World War II Print Ads - Allison Engines

Sat Sep 02, 2017 5:25 pm

World War II print ads.
These ads abounded during World War II and were used reinforce brand awareness while a company was supporting the war effort instead of being able to provide consumer goods.
Nearly all these images are from the collection of Benoit De Mulder. Thank you Benoit for sharing these with us.

Interesting how the second ad seems to be selling the general concept of in-line engines...even the Spitfire's Merlin or the Bf-109s Daimler Benz.

Also not the mention of the Apache..."The British call it the Mustang".
