01
Artifact Overview
Automotive ads seem to land somewhere between fantasy and reality, emotions and rationality. Print advertisements from the 1950s for Cadillac cars were not only marketing extravagant vehicles of unrestrained design, they were selling a way of life and social status, luxury and elegance, and sophistication and power.
