01

Artifact Overview

The Baker Motor Vehicle Company advertised its elegantly styled electric car in this 1913 ad. Clearly aimed at well-to-do women, this advertisement does not discuss the vehicle's operational or mechanical features. Similar ads touted Baker electric vehicles as simple to use, reliable, safe and clean -- qualities only implied by this ad.
