48-52 Magazine ad collection

Hey all, I had a little down time today, so I played around and scanned in the few magazine ads I have collected, and posted them online for you all. I appologize for the low quality of the scans, but its hard to do these justice and keep it under 800 pixels. I do have them all in full size high resolution if anyone might want me to email a copy. Check them out at:

and while your at it, please check out the rest of my website:

Hope you all enjoy

Nice adds. I think ford under estimated how long they will last. The truck are still running 50+ years later. I know a guy that uses a '53 600 and '54 350.

What I think is really cool about these ads is the fact that they are very much selling these trucks as workhorses, not for cruising around town in. I mean the main truck in half these ads looks to be at least an F-4 or larger. I highly doubt Ford would have ever imagined that these old trucks would still be on the road 50 years later, some of them still the way they rolled off the line too
