Re: IML: Calling all 1954 owners! And the 1953 lit is nice, too.

["Currell Pattie" <currellpattie@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Kenyon: I agree. I have been collecting sales lit for many years, and 
consider the 1953 and 54 items right at the top. That "parchment" paper 
(can't remember if it is on the 53, 54 or both) adds a nice touch. And 
renderings, not photos (of course, photos weren't used that much in US lit 
then).

The standard 1953 and/or 54 Chrysler catalogs (I get these two mixed up, 
too) also have beautiful car art, and backgrounds. You can Kinko a favorite 
page cheaply, and frame for your den or garage. They are smaller, and not on 
expecially expensive paper, but it is the choice of colors, and the artist's 
style, that sets them apart.
