I'm hoping that someone on here, or a friend of a friend of a friend of someone on here can help me find a copy of an old advert.
The advert in question was printed in news papers some years before WWII.....yes thats right.. but it must surely have been scanned in by someone and posted on the net by now!!!
It was to advertise the coming of the SS
Now, a car enthusiast will know that Swallow sidecars went from building motorcycle sidecars and started to build some of the most beautiful and successful cars to date.......still lost?
Well, they changed their name after the war to Jaguar
Now to the ad image in question
It featured the headline "WAIT...the SS is coming" and had a picture of a rather stern looking bloke holding out his hand as if to stop someone.
Things were a bit of a spooky glimpse of what was to come a few years later I think as the badge for SS cars in those days looked very similar to the Nazi eagle, that along with the SS moniker and the stern looking geezer is enough to make you shiver.
Someone pleeeeeeease help me find it
