Description: ADVERTISEMENT: 1981 Matchbox vintage full-page print ad in Norwegian language primarily picturing the "Super Boss" drag racing semi truck with other, packaged model kits beneath: 1950 Ford convertible, 1955 Chevy Bel Air Coupe, Kenworth W-925 "Movin' On" semi truck, Suzuki RGA 500 racing motorcycle, and Saab J-29F Swedish fighter jet. Heading reads "Advarsel for klåfingrete fedre!", which translates to "Warning for clawed fathers!" The paragraph under the heading is a bit funny, as it describes how fathers will want to get their hands on these models and help their kids build them. So kids need to protect their models.APPROXIMATE SIZE: 6.75" x 10.25" including margins. I try to leave ample margin where possible to allow for matting and framing.CONDITION: This is an original print ad carefully removed from a used, vintage magazine. There are some age toning, curling where the spine was, and small tears where the staples were, as expected. Please note: This sale is for the vintage paper advertisement shown and not the item in the advertisement. It is not a copy, reprint, or repro of any kind. It is an original print ad removed from a vintage magazine.Vintage print advertisements are ideal for:CollectorsHistoriansMuseumsAn nostalgic giftHome and Business decorAs a graphic designer and a bit of a vintage collector myself, I see the value these vintage ads hold. They may or may not have much monetary value... but they are little nuggets of history. They show past trends in print design as well as the industries represented by the products advertised—whether it's fashion, interior design and furniture, food and drink, electronics, travel and vehicles, and so much more. These little history nuggies are perfect for decorating your home or office. But they could also be used for researching the history of nostalgic products we've grown to love or others we've nearly forgotten over time.Whether you have an attachment to the advertized product or simply the design of the ad itself, order this print ad today before it's history!ABOUT THE ADS:Because I live in Europe, many ads I have listed are not in the English language. I try to note those that aren't, but look at photos carefully before buying.While these ads come from a pet and smoke-free home, I cannot confirm the conditions of previous homes or locations.Carefully removed from the source (magazine) myself and completely original. No copies, reprints or reproductions of any kind.For ads that are not full-page, I try to leave ample margin to make matting and framing easier. You could always trim down as needed.Most vintage ads were printed on very thin paper and so some of the printing or advertisement from the reverse side may be visible.Ads are shipped in plastic sleeves (when possible) between two layers of cardboard, all inside a bubble mailer.Payment, Shipping, and ReturnsOnly payments available within eBay are accepted.Combined Shipping: Due to living in Europe, I have included shipping in the listing price. You should not be asked to pay extra for shipping, no matter how many print ads you order! It will help me to know, however, if you plan to order multiple ads so that I can combine shipping.30-day return policy for any reason. Buyer pays for return shipping.Thanks for browsing!
