Is it just me or does it look photoshopped?

That was in the Commercial Truck thread awhile ago. I love and would love to make one.

The Model A was used for many moving advertisements. Here is one for Playland in San Francisco (early theme park).

I wondered that too. Prohibition didn't end till later in '33 so it was not a new vehicle when photographed. Is the white stuff on the running board supposed to be foam from beer?

It looks like it might have been enhanced to make the truck and the beer mug stand out from the background.

Long before Photoshop, images intended for reproduction in books or magazines using the halftone screen printing process had to be manually adjusted by shading or outlining in order to provide sufficient contrast in the final printed image.

Must be interesting on a quick stop. And acceleration might give the driver behind a good swig.

Sorry. I had to say it.

Blatz, what all the stylish drivers are wearing this fall.

Blatz at one time was the largest beer brewing company in the US.

Well, it looked like they had the biggest beer mugs, anyway....

That Playland truck was an original panel truck. See how the door rises up.
