Late 1940s Delivery Panel Wagon Brochure

• CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This is a circa 1949 delivery panel wagon brochure marked PDCM1-3CM-949 that highlights the advantages of a Willys Panel Delivery Jeep. It’s a brochure that could act as a mailing brochure as well. What makes the brochure’s design a little unusual is that the first ‘fold’ is vertical, rather than horizontal, making it 17″ by 5.5″ when first unfolded.

If folded, this was the 8.5″ by 5.5″ front page:

willys-panel-delivery-pdcm1-3cm-949-1

And this the back: willys-panel-delivery-pdcm1-3cm-949-2

 

When unfolded, this makes a 17″ x 5.5″ graphic:

willys-panel-delivery-pdcm1-3cm-949-joint1-lores

If unfolded all the way, this 17″ x 11″ complete foldout:
