BSA Motorcycles wartime advertising image.  Says a great deal about this sort of wartime advertising/PR material, which was produced in singificant quantities by British, US and even German manufacturers involved in the war effort, without any need for additional commentary on my part.  Best regards, JR.

Piggy-back advertising.

A period poster advertising Autocar trucks.  It all seems a little naive with the destroyed Japanese aircraft, the GI's trudging past the fuel truck and Harley Davidson motorbike that aren't sinking into the dirt at all.  (It must be the dry season).  The B-24's overhead have a lot more wingspan than they ought.  This probably appeared in Life and Victory magazines as a full-page advertisement.

AUTOCAR POSTER

Early WW2 advertising/PR image, this time from Triumph Motorcycles, coming from a slightly different angle.  Patriotism and publicity in one swoop.  Best regards, JR.
