1930s Color Ad Copies

View the ads (opens in a new window).

A perfect companion for A Catalog of Early 30's Pinball Ads, the color ad copies show in brilliant terms the games and marketing efforts of the early 1930's. There are over 25 images in total to choose from. Note that these ads are also listed in the general ads for sale page.

These ad copies are a fantastic and economical way to kick start your flyer collection. They are also suitable for framing in your game room - a must have especially if you happen to own any of the depicted machines!

Some of the single-page images are single or full color, taken from magazine ads, while others are sourced from original single page flyers. Multi-page images generally are taken from multi-page original flyers.

All images (except a couple of oddballs) are digitally enhanced from the originals. Imperfections such as creases, punch holes, tears and discolorations have been meticulously removed. Each full color image has many hours of labor behind it. When you consider that and the fact that the originals are quite rare and very expensive, I think you'll agree that they are a bargain.

All copies are 8.5" by 11", and come in polypropylene sheet protectors, ready to be inserted into binders if desired.
