This rare brochure documents the Koenig Iron work’s vertical door hardtop.

This promotional jeep is similar in size to a brass one discussed here. It could have been related to the Hongkong gold jeep display shared here: http://cj3b.info/Siblings/SurreyGold.html
This 1943 ad shows Bob Hope hawking Crown Cola while sitting on a jeep.
This rare brochure seems to be a reasonable price.

I haven’t run across many ads that included M-38s.
“ORIGINAL VINTAGE MAGAZINE ITEM
1951 Goodrich Geon JEEP waterproof upholstery Ad”
It’s a meat little winching pamphlet extolling the virtues of the Koenig winch.
“Jeep King Winches original pamohlet brochure.Measures 8 by 14 inches”
The seller indicates this was a Park Avenue tape measure? It’s the first one I’ve ever listed here at eWillys. Must be pretty rare.
“good condition with expected wear”
UPDATE: This ad is still available.
I guess Texcel was a Scotch Tape competitor? Never heard of it.

Willys Overland of Canada Limited placed this ad in the October 28, 1947, issue of the Montreal Gazette.
This ad was published January 12, 1949, in the Lewiston Daily Sun.
Maury spotted this cool ad.

This tie tack pin just sold on eBay.
“I found this recently, and it’s in fantastic shape overall. I’m not 100% certain of its age, but found it as part of a lot in which I was able to date other pieces from the 60’s. A very detailed little pin; definitely original and promotional. It measures 1 1/8″ bumper to bumper.”
Only half a day left on this auction. The price is only $9.99 with one bid as of this posting.
“Very well preserved Vintage Jeep Cufflinks and Tie Clip.”
Maury ran across this rare CJ-5 and figured few people knew about it (I’ve never written anything about it). Kaiser Jeep of Australia built what they called Jeep Combat 6, a CJ-5 derivative. They had Ford 170ci straight 6 motors, the same engine used in the early Mustangs. It was the Australian answer to the Dauntless V6 being installed Stateside.
About 460 Jeep Combat 6 vehicles were made. Of the 460, it is unknown how many were CJ5’s or CJ6’s, as all documented records were either lost or destroyed. The chassis and the tubs were imported from Kaiser’s US plant and assembled with the Ford engines in Brisbane. Here’s photos of 1968 Combat 6 that was for sale about a year ago in Australia:
You can learn more about them at the CJ-3B page (scroll down to the page’s bottom). Here’s an example of a Combat 6 brochure.
According to the 3B page, the Combat 6 marketing didn’t last for long. The Australian arm of Kaiser Jeep dropped the Combat 6 brand, possibly replacing it with the Sportster. As you can see in this ad that was for sale on Australia’s eBay, the Sportster CJ-5 had the inline 6. If anyone has more info, please let me know. I couldn’t find much on these.

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was on eBay
I haven’t seen many of the hardtops shown in this brochure. The passenger side door (that is, the left hand door) is particularly unusual.

Mark was asking about the side auxiliary windows on a Meyer hardtop and wonder if those were custom made or a factory option. This four page Meyer brochure answers that question.
This 1944 Ad out of the Southeast Missourian featured “Jim” piloting what looks like a Ford GP.
