Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:

 

Cliff Palace, Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado

 

America's first apartment houses -

today they belong to you . . .

 

At Mesa Verde National Park you'll find the finest prehistoric

Indian cliff dwellings in the country -relics of

a highly-developed civilization that flourished during

the first 1300 years of the Christian era. You can see

how this ancient people lived . . . worshiped . . . farmed

and hunted. You can climb through their amazing

pueblos - Stone Age apartment houses such as Cliff

Palace which housed over 400 Indians on 8 different

floor levels before Columbus sailed for the New World.

Today we know the story of the Mesa Verde and its

people, thanks to the work of one of America's great

scientific institutions, the National Geographic Society.

The Douglas Tree Ring Calendar, developed under the

Society's sponsorship, traced the settlement’s growth

and revealed the 24-year drouth that helped to turn

the great pueblos into deserted villages.

But these great villages are no longer deserted. Each

year some 160,000 Americans travel there to see the

treasures that, as part of the National Park System,

have been conserved for them . . . and their children

. . . and their children's children.

It is good that this is so . . . for a nation that cherishes

the heritage of its past can face its future with confidence.

 

SINCLAIR SALUTES THE NATIONAL CEOCRAPHIC SOCIETY for so actively supporting

the conservation of America's natural resources and scenic treasures. In addition to pushing

back the historic horizons of the Southwest, the Society has added to the world's geographic

knowledge through more than 100 expeditions ranging from

pole to pole, up into the stratosphere and down to the ocean

floor. A staunch friend of the National Parks from the very beginning,

the Society and its Magazine were instrumental in the

establishment of the National Park System and made invaluable

contributions to many of the Parks.

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
