20th Century Classic Cars by Phil Patton
From the Jim Heimann collection, a seminal collection of classic car adsfrom the populism of the Ford Model T in the 1910s, through the sexy, aspirational cruisers of the 1950s, the quirkiness of the VW Beetle ads in the 1960s, right up to the present day of rugged SUVs and sleek, deluxe sports models.
