This authentic, great World War II era Vintage Ad was printed in a 1943 issue. These are wonderful advertisements, and we only have a limited number available.
Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
What it takes to move a division
If, like the eagle, you could look
down on the amount of railroad equipment
it takes to move a single armored division,
here is what you would see . . . 75 trains!
For a division takes all its equipment with
It – tanks, jeeps, armored cars, supply
trucks, tractors, anti-aircraft guns, many
things. And its men, numbering about
12,000, need berths in which to sleep!
Those 75 trains taken out of civilian service
and put into military service are about equal
to the number of passenger trains running
daily over the Pennsylvania Railroad
between two of the busiest places on the face
of the globe -New York and Washington.
Multiply this one division by the many
moving in this country and you can
understand why . . . you may have difficulty
getting a berth . . . or be obliged to stand
in a coach . . . or arrive at your destination
late. In fact, demand for equipment is now
so great that on arriving at terminals cars
must be put right back into service, so you
may find them not quite so spic and span
as we would like. Housekeeping facilities
are adequate but there's not always time.
But Americans are taking all this like
good soldiers. For they know this i8 a war
of movement, and that movement begins
right here-in America, on the raids.
