This great World War II era Vintage Ad was printed for the October, 1942 issue. These are wonderful advertisements, and we only have a limited number available.
Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
Upside down or right side up . . .
at 20 degrees or 100 degrees above
Without electricity, no modern bomber could ever leave the ground.
Electricity starts the motors,
retracts the landing gear,
changes the propeller pitch,
works the wing flaps, opens the
bomb doors, powers the radio
and inter-communication system,
operates the instruments,
gives light for the crew to
work by.
No ordinary electrical apparatus
can handle these jobs in a
bomber.
The whole complicated system
must work as well upside
down as right side up. It must
function in a tropical thunderstorm
and in 20° below zero
altitudes. And it must be designed
to save every precious
fraction of an ounce and inch.
Developing electrical equipment
for bombers-and producing
that equipment in quantity-
is a job made to order
for Westinghouse “know how."
Here are some of the Westinghouse
products that are going
into American bombers
today:
• Instruments designed so one
instrument does the work of
two.
• Radio equipment and special
blind-flying devices.
• Electric motors that develop
more horsepower per pound
than any other motors ever
built.
• Instrument lights that cast
invisible rays on dial markings.
• Electric generators which
weigh only 42 pounds, yet produce
a8 much electricity as 35
standard automobile generators
weighing 23 pounds each.
In making these things, the long range
work of Westinghouse
Research and Engineering Laboratories
has played a significant
part. Discoveries in many
fields-in electronics, physics,
chemistry, mechanical and electrical
engineering-are now
bearing fruit in the production
of better and more powerful
weapons of war.
Many of these discoveries,
we believe, will someday help
to make a better peacetime
world.

A great Vintage Ad!
You pick your frame color, and you pick your mat color. We will mat and frame your Vintage Ad per your request and send it to you promptly. All you have to do is remove it from the box and hang it on the wall in your home, office, garage, man cave, or showroom!
We mat and frame original, vintage magazine ads...they are in good condition, but may not be perfect as they are many decades old. Frame outside dimensions are 15" x 12", and matted ad is approximately 9-5/8" x 6-5/8" (could be slightly different, depending on ad).
Frames and vintage ads are actual as shown, and mat is computer generated for online viewing. Actual mat is custom cut for each individual ad and mat color will be similar to the colors shown on the website. “Travel Route 3 Scan” watermark is placed on the ad for online viewing only, and is not part of the final product.
