Late 1948 America’s Most Useful Vehicles Brochure

UPDATE: There’s another of these brochures on eBay for $44.95 (plus $4.68 shipping).

This 1948 jeep family brochure was likely produced in late 1948, as there’s a reference to an upcoming expectation “in early 1949” within the text. Outside of that reference, there’s no date stamp or form number. I’ve only seen few of these pop up for sale on eBay, so I snagged this one right away. I believe it represents the earliest and most complete (in pics and text) listing of the full line of jeep models for the civilian market (it lacks any military models and business-focused models, such as the Package Delivery Vans).

I especially like the illustrations. The discussion of the different factory divisions at the back was interesting, too. Including the covers, the brochure is 26 pages.

“1964 willys Jeep was running when I parked it. Fresh gas and a battery and she will fire right up. Need brakes will run and drive but just no brakes. Asking $5500 but am a little bit negotiable and would consider a trade”

That seems an odd place to put a winch, but maybe it was only used for light items?

“Was a great hunting rig. Just not being used, would like to see someone enjoy it again.”
