Oldsmobile Ads
 In December of 2000, General Motors decided to phase out the Oldsmobile model. Many fans of the stylish sedan saw it as a sad passing of Americana -- for many years, the Olds was the king of the road, particularly during the late '40s and early '50s. This impressive collection of ads from magazines during that era touts the dependability and durability of these classic American machines. The ads represent a more innocent style of America advertising, when "futuramic" styling and "OLDSmobility" were the buzzwords for an "exciting rocket age." Make sure to stop by the Junkyard section, a photo collection of abandoned older cars, many of which are overgrown with weeds. This leisurely cruise down memory lane offers a nostalgic look at the car with the grand old name.
