This four-page Ramsey Winch Kit brochure is labeled Bulletin 105.

This is the fifth of five similar brochures, though it’s the only one described as a Willys-Overland Export Company Brochure. It highlights the Willys Sedan Delivery vehicle. The form number is SD-73-MI–80M–350. Like the others, it is nearly 22″x17″.

The brochure in the post below this appears to be the same, though with different colors, and it states it is from Willys-Overland Motors. Why are they different? I don’t know.

This is how the folded front page looks:

This is the folded back page:

When unfolded vertically, this page appears:

When unfolded horizontally, this page appears highlighting the new Hurricane engine:

When completely unfolded, this page appears:

I don’t have a high resolution version of this brochure, as it’s more expensive (almost $50 after shipping and taxes .. it comes from Australia) than I’d like to pay. You can see it was originally sent to Minnesota (Cutler Motors Sales, Mora, MN). How it got to Australia I couldn’t say. Curiously, it has the same form number as the export version in the post above: SD-73-MI–80M–350.

I was inspired to purchase and learn more about the brochures below after realizing that a poster I saw during a visit at Dave Antram’s place in 2013. Here’s a photo of it:

I’m wondering if there is a Universal Jeep brochure similar to the brochures below. I don’t remember seeing one and I don’t have any documentation of one yet. There also could be other brochures with the same theme as the ones below, so I can’t say these five represent ALL of them.

Now on to the truck/wagon brochures. These five brochures are very similar, so I thought it would be interesting to compare them side by side. As you can see below, the images and coloring of the brochures are very similar to the poster, but not exactly the same. These brochures also have the dimension graphic concept, though the poster expresses it somewhat differently.

While I originally thought these were all printed in early 1950, I’m less certain, as Colin pointed out that #1 (4WD Willys Truck) mentions “Key Starting”, which he thinks appeared in 1952. So, most likely, these appeared between 1950-1952.

You can view the original scans using the following links:

1. The upper left NEW 4WD WILLYS Truck brochure
2. The upper right NEW 1/2 Ton WILLYS Truck brochure
3. The lower left Sedan Delivery Export brochure with the “New” Hurricane
4. The lower right Sedan Delivery with “Famous” Hurricane is here: 

These are the back of those brochures:

5. The New Willys Sedan Delivery brochure (domestic only? from the today’s top post)

There’s no form number on this Willys Sedan Brochure, but based on the style, I would say it’s a 1950 brochure. This is the front of the brochure. Once I receive on additional brochure, I’ll demonstrate the series of 1950 wagon/truck nose brochures.

This is the back fo the unfolded brochure:

When unfolded vertically, this page appears:

When unfolded once more, this time horizontally, this page appears. One interesting detail is that the other similar brochure refer to the engine as “new”, but this one refers to the engine as “Famous”. Thus, I suspect this is a late 1950 brochure.

When the brochure is fully unfolded, this page appears:

This is how the unfolded back of the brochure looks:
