Some New Old 1942 Ads

I have actually seen a Northrop N3-PB. One of those built for Norway in WWII was recovered and rebuilt by Northrop in the early 1980's. It was featured in the Torrance Armed Forces Day Parade and I walked down to the end of the parade route and got to look at it up close for 15 or 20 min. Nice looking airplane!

... that Bell ad .... starts or perpetuates the myth about tank busting ... "The first casualty of war is the truth"
But I love the ads

Takes me back to the time I had ten hours in the Piper Cub when in the Army Air Corps Cadet Program during WWII. A fun experience.
