VolkswagenPrint Ad, Original
**Framed ad is 9 inches wide, 11 1/2 inches tall**
**"It was the only thing to do after the mule died" is the great quote that headlines this ad. The ad has an American Gothic-type couple at the side of a VW bug in front of a log cabin. The ad text tells the story of the Hinsleys of Dora, Missouri. Three years ago, their mule died and they had a tough decision...buy a new mule or invest in a used bug...and so starts a wonderfully humorous story of the factors the couple weighed and what finally decided them**
**Estimating print time to be in the 1950s**
**An original magazine page, not a reproduction**
**Frame is simple black plastic with gold edge**
**Ad is in excellent condition, although has yellowing. Ad may shift in frame during shipping**
**Frame has scuffs, scratches on plastic edge**
**SPECIAL NOTE: The ad is much clearer and crisper in person than it looks in the photos**
