This great World War II era Vintage Ad was printed for the July, 1943 issue. These are wonderful advertisements, and we only have a limited number available.

Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:

 

The Common Mackerel

The SCOMBER SCOMBRUS, the common mackerel

which roams the seas of the North

Atlantic, is the perfect embodiment of streamlining.

His slim, iridescent body is long and spindle-shaped,

designed especially for great endurance.

He has strong muscles along his spinal column

and can tuck his fins in close to his body so as to

swim with a minimum of effort.

Nature has equipped the mackerel in this

fashion because he has a serious handicap. Unlike

most fish, he has no air bladder to give him

buoyancy.

If he happened to be in shallow water, he

could sink to rest on the bottom without being

endangered by the pressure of water above him.

But as he spends much of his life far out in the

open sea, this solution is usually impossible.

He cannot suspend himself motionless near the

surface like some fish with an air bladder. Yet, if

he should allow himself to sink, the pressure of

the depths would crush him. So, as long as he is

in the open sea, he can never rest, but must keep

swimming constantly to avoid disaster.

In this respect, the mackerel is like the average

man who has no insurance. Each is safe only as

long as he can keep going.

If the man without insurance has an accident

which lands him in the hospital and keeps him

from work, both his normal activity and his

normal income are interrupted. When this happens,

he must either dip into hard-earned savings

to meet his obligations, or, if he has no savings,

be crushed by the weight of his misfortune.

Insurance protects you from the heavy cost of

an accident you can neither foresee nor prevent.

It thus relieves you of many worries that otherwise

would disturb you. As actuarial experience

indicates that the chances are actually one in ten

that you will be involved in an accident within

the coming year, you should not be without this

protection at any time.

In your own community there is an experienced

Travelers agent who will be glad to explain

just what accident insurance can mean to you. He

will also see to it that the policies you choose

become an economical yet efficient part of a well-rounded

insurance program.

MORAL: Insure in The Travelers. All forms of

insurance. The Travelers Insurance Company,

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. Back side of Vintage Ad is glued to backing paper so that it continues to display flat over time. Here is what you will receive:

- New frame
- New mat
