The "Jewels Series" ~ Cadillac Ads
▫ 1953 Jewels by Harry Winston ▫
This wonderful ad is one of a lengthy Cadillac 'Jewels Series' that ran from the late 1940's until the early 1960's, associating the Cadillac brand with the finest of luxury. The notable feature of each ad is an elegant necklace, bracelet, or broach with a precious gem forming a Cadillac "V" which beautifully frames the wreath and crest. This 1953 "Jewel" ad for the new convertible reads, in part... "for, beyond Cadillac, there is only the future. Those who want the finest want - the Standard of the World!" Jewels by Harry Winston.
▫ 1953 Jewels by Van Cleef & Arpels ▫
I've got several other Jewel ads in my collection... including this stunning green 1953 Cadillac with turquoise necklace by Van Cleef & Arpels, 1949 and 1962 ads featuring Jewels by Cartier, and more! These are always among my favorite classic car ads.
If you're interested in purchasing an ad featured here but can't find it in my store, please email me. Many of these ads I may be able to track down. Don't hesitate to ask!
