Product Description : The History of Advertising - Automobiles 1930 to 1940 is a vintage collection of high quality movie clips and television ads highlighting one of the great American car companies - Chevrolet! It is the finest collection of advertising snapshots available, providing a valuable insight in to the marketing strategies implemented during this historic time. Imagine a time when television was just being born. Put yourself into the 1930s when automobiles were just becoming a part of the American land-scape! This 2-DVD set captures that era like nothing else can. Some of these advertisements were shown as newsreels before motion pictures. Others were actually some of the first ads ever to appear on television! This 2-DVD set depicts classic advertisement films and examples of automobile centric stories. It includes classic "Capitalistic Realist" dramas showing the manufacture of cars from foundry to finished vehicle. Also features examples of a day in the life of automobile workers in the U.S. while attempting to convince them that their own fortunes were inexorably linked to the fortunes of the company. A few of those films were designed to promote corporate citizenship rather than any specific model of automobile. While it forcefully demonstrates how central automobile manufacturing was to the American economy it even more strikingly shows the effects of the automobile on our landscape.
