Low resolution, but restored. Click the picture for a slightly better image.

Nice picture Tony.
Interesting that the Ruby has dark window surrounds but the Pearl has body colour. Not that adverts are much guide to authenticity, witness the usual "Post Office" red for the Pearl instead of Cherry Red. And the pesky starting handle thief has been calling !

Interesting to note the advertising ploy of making the cars look bigger by scaling down the figures in the cars and the bystander.. Typically this is still used to today by the car advertising departments, although they now use Photoshop.
