1941 Ad Published in Time Magazine - 3 Prototypes

Mario posted this ad to Facebook. It was published September 22, 1941, in Time Magazine. It's unique in that it shows three of the prototype jeeps .. The Bantam BRC-60, The Willys MA (2 of them), and the Ford GP. The ad was created by DeVilbiss Spray Systems of Toledo, Ohio.

Interesting to note that this advertisement was created by DeVilbiss, A long time trusted name in spray painting equipment. I assume the connection was Toledo, Today, although the name brand survives, I seriously doubt the spray guns are made in the U. S. A. But the Jeep, no doubt, still made in America.
