I was looking for some fuel pump info and came accross this:

Evidently Google has all the PMs online. I read through the NOV 44 issue and its a HUGE source of information. Not only ads from teh major wartime manufacturers, but everything from wartime news to home front living.

I really got a kick from the Atlas bodybuilding ad, the Bell Telephone ad, Gun ads and of course tobacco ads (pipes seem to be very popular).
I got a Mountain Cur and a ~~pitbull~~ big loveable cuddle puppy
