Oldsmobile Cars -1915A
13/14

A two-color ad for the Oldsmobile compares its speed and power to that of a giant steam locomotive. From the back cover of the March 6, 1915, issue of SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN; note that the cover of this issue is by the same artist and also illustrates a steam locomotive (though not in a situation that recommends itself for emulation by the automobile driver)
