Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
When you drive through the Lake George-Lake Champlain
area, be sure to see Fort Ticonderoga, N. Y.-restored as it
was in the days of the Revolution. It's open May a to Oct. 31.
Fort Ti-where a big man turned the key to a continent
Ethan Allen was a big man. Big in stature . . . big
in his belief that every man should be free.
Early on a May morning in 1775, Col. Ethan
Allen led his Green Mountain boys across Lake
Champlain, and captured Fort Ticonderoga. Hammering
on the fort's door, he roared for surrender
"In the name of the great Jehovah and the Continental
Congress." His victory greatly encouraged
the Colonists in the struggle for freedom and gave
them control of a vital water route-key to a
continent.
Today, some quarter of a million Americans each
year invade the old Fort, restored in perfect detail
by the late Stephen H. P. Pell and his family. The
Fort stands in the heart of one of our most attractive
vacationlands, where historic Lake Champlain
meets the waters of Lake George-a haven for
fishing, camping and other sports.
It's been 182 years since Ethan Allen pounded on
the door at Fort Ti, but the echoes have never
died. You could hear them at Anzio and Iwo . . .
at Inchon and Omaha Beach. The Colonel would
be mighty pleased to know that Americans are still
willing to wade ashore in the fight for freedom.
SINCLAIR SALUTES THE FORT TICONDEROGA ASSOCIATION...for maintaining
Fort Ticonderoga, with its beautiful grounds and vast collection
of Colonial objects, as a living page of early American
history. Under the direction of John H. G. Pell, the work of the
Association is a striking example of how private organizations
throughout the U.S. are restoring and preserving landmarks of
significance for all Americans.
Sinclair a great name in oil
