Here is a great old magazine adverisement for the 1953 Plymouth wagon that I imaged from a National Geographic magazine. In this case, it is a beautiful 2-door Savoy. Back then, it was more common to see artists renditions of an automobile in a print advertisement. The 2-door Plymouth station wagon looks great and right at home in the classy setting.

Nice looking wagon. Don't recall seeing very many of them in 1:1; at least where I lived. Cool old ad Mike!

Many of the old advertising artists renditions of automobiles in the advertisements could be very evocative and sometimes almost dream-like in their depiction of a car.
