1950 Willys Sedan Delivery Brochure Blue

This one has a blue front and a copper-colored(?) delivery sedan on the main page. I’ll get the page comparing these sedan delivery brochure updated after I post some others tomorrow.

This is how the folded front page looks:

Desktop Pen Holder w/ Gold CJ-5 on eBay

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

This seller has sold several of his father’s items from the time he worked for Willys in the Caribbean. It’s a unique item, but the price seems high given it doesn’t have the original pen.

View all the information on eBay

“Rare VTG Vintage 1950/60’s Gold Willys Jeep Desktop Pen Holder Wood Base in Very Good Used Condition. Base Only – No Pen Included. Base measures approximately 3-3/4″ x 4-3/4″. Cork pads on bottom. Needs a detail job. Minor scuffs and scratches associated with age and use. Please review the attached photos to determine your opinion of the cosmetic condition of this item. The photos are important part of the listing. What you see is what you get. I do my best to describe items accurately, but there may be some dirt, scratches, scuffs, discolorations, and/or other occurrences of wear that I may have overlooked. Again, please carefully review the photos to make your own evaluation of cosmetic condition, and do not hesitate to ask any questions, or request special photos prior to purchase. Thanks!

My Father obtained this pen holder while working in fleet sales for Willys in the Caribbean and Central & South America in the 50’s and early 60’s.”

1953/1954 Photo of Jeeps at Mirror Lake, Colorado

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old Images This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This photo of jeeps at Mirror Lake is hosted at the Salida Regional Library. Given the CJ-3B in the photo, but a lack of CJ-5s, this photo was likely taken around 1953 or 1954. The caption reads: “The Jeep Club at Mirror Lake during their tour of Cottonwood and Tincup Passes in Colorado. This image is from the Salida Museum Negatives Collection.”
