Default Vintage Automotive "info-mercials" of the 1930's & '40's

For a good look back at automotive nostalgia, the link below has some fun video shorts (3 minutes to 10 minutes each) of movie shorts that accompanied movies at theaters of the 1930's and 1940's, as well as some early (1950's) T.V. adds, and some more recent of the Jay Leno car collection. Be forewarned . . . . some of these have a decidedly CHEVROLET* presence, but still provide a fun look at our early automotive history.

*Don't over-look : "Win a 1932 Car", which features the NEW FORD for 1932.

Maybe that can be a sticky?

I like the one with Babe Ruth as the passenger in the cab. He tells the cabbie Harold Lloyd"I'll come back if I want to commit suicide!."
