    Advertising art and imagery at it's best! Now that's something worth reproducing!

    Thanks for sharing. I loved it. I used to work for Pep Boys out of HS. I also have a couple of old axle grease cans from the 50's.

    Its funny how the more things change, the more things stay the same. Looks like Pep Boys has always carried lots of useless ****. Though I wouldn't mind having some of that old "useless" ****.

    Then and today
    Custom taillights
    Hood ornaments
    Mud flaps
    Wash cloths
    Floor mats
    Horns
    etc,

    That's Max the Carburetor Cat, or was. Great kitty; always around and rodents whispered his name in terror.

    Thanks much for taking time to show us more of the book.

    Saw your earlier pics in another post and loved 'em. Great to see more pages. A trip down memory lane and an amazing insight into several aspects of the American past.

    The current Pep Boys organization should step up and have reprints made - along the lines of the re-pop Sears catalogs.

    let me know if there is anything anyone want`s a close up of, I will be glad to share it with the hamb!
     
  30. Freakin' AWESOME!

    According to the inflation calculator, multiply each of those prices by about 13 to get a current dollar equivalent. That 12 volt battery, for example ($6.95) translates as about $90 in today's terms. Two gallons of oil ($.89), about $12.
