Milaca Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 The glamour shot of the R model reminds me of a large Freightliner calender (2 ft X 3 ft tall?) I had as a kid back around 1981. Large glossy photos of the new trucks with lots of stainless steel. I think my dad got the calendar from one of the mechanics at Land 'O' Lakes back when he drove bulk milk truck for them. Did Mack offer large glossy calendars back then too? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30849-some-old-ads/#findComment-178555 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pawel Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Superdog - I thought you have the paper version of those ads - that would give you the opportunity to scan this portion of the image with higher resolution. Thanks anyhow, I especially like those Superliner adsJohn - thanks for trying, but I tried it too, with the same results - I'd need access to the paper version of it to do right. I'm glad I could clearly explain which detail I wanted.Have a nice dayPaweł Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30849-some-old-ads/#findComment-178595 Share on other sites More sharing options...

felicello122 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 It was cool when they painted a cabover and a conventional with the same paint scheme. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30849-some-old-ads/#findComment-178723 Share on other sites More sharing options...
