This great World War II era Vintage Ad was printed for the February, 1943 issue. These are wonderful advertisements, and we only have a limited number available.
Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
To Every Mother in America
Somewhere in America, tonight, a young man
sits in a railroad car . . . bound for a destination
unknown. He wears the olive drab of the Army,
the blue of the Navy, or the forest green of
the Marines.
He may be your Son.
We know how you feel about that boy. We
know what was in your heart when you said
goodbye.
We know . . . because that boy is our son, too.
And wherever he's going, we promise you this:
That to the very limit of our abilities, where
he's concerned, it will never be ``too little and
too late." Because . . . it can blow or storm or sleet
or rain . . . we'11 get the supplies through. The
guns he needs to do the job. The food to sustain
him and give him strength. The medical equipment,
the winter clothing, the mail from home . . .
That every hour of every passing day will see
a million freight cars rumbling across the land
. . . carrying raw materials to factories, steel mills
and refineries . . . rushing the finished cargoes
of war to the ships waiting in the harbors . . .
And that with us, the men of the railroads,
your son will always come first!
For he is the hope of America.
Tonight, mothers of America, remember these
things, and listen for the whistle of the trains as
they go thundering in the dark. Listen . . . and
you'll hear the voice of a nation's fury . . . the
battle-hymn of free men working together, fighting
together, until Victory is ours.

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
- New glass
- Vintage Ad
