A very special Christmas

• 

Those who follow these pages know that ''post-war"cars starts with 1946 in general. This as in most parts of the world car production during wartime was zero or near to zero. Still we all know that WWII was ended after September 2. So basically the last bit of 1945 is 'post-war'. We were surprised to receive this advert from collector Hans Horwitz: a 1945 Christmas advert by Studebaker. It must be some one the earliest post-war car adverts. The first line reads: 'This year, the beautiful old Yuletide sentiment -"peace on earth"- means something far more real to most of us than it did at any previous Christmas...'
Well in a way this counts for every Christmas. 2014 was a year to remember as well. Today it is Christmas. Let it be peace on earth.
