AACA Museum Sale 2012 Finds

[TG57Roadmaster]

As with Forrest Gump's proverbial box of chocolates, got some nice things courtesy of
the AACA Museum's Silent Auction this year in Philly. There were five forlorn copies of 1958
Fortune magazines in pretty tatty condition that I picked up for 20 clams, knowing the
ads within would be okay. Leafed through them briefly during the auction, but didn't really get
into 'em till two days ago. I'd seen the '58 Olds Super 88 Fiesta wagon ad while we were there,
but the other two were real surprizes (the last was jaw-dropping), and more than worth the effort!


Larger, a nifty '58 Olds Fiesta.


Larger, the regal '58 Ghia Crown Imperial, an ad I've seen but did not have.


Larger, like it says, the Distinguished Eldorado Brougham. Been collecting
ads for a lotta years, and didn't know this one even existed!
There were many other car & transport ads, too,
but these three were tops.

For me, the Museum's auction was (and the entire meeting), priceless!
