Why pick all white when there's so many other colors........ =========================================== I wonder the same thing about red, especially since it has become so cliche for auction queens, hypesters, flippers, and douchebag owners. Who wants to be associated with THAT ? | ||

Exner Expert 19,174 posts. Neil passed away 18 Sep 2015. You will be missed, Neil! Posts: 19146 Location: bishop, ca | Matt asks, above: 57 Desoto convertible. Why pick all white when there's so many other colors........ ...simply, because a white car matches the white appearance of the Gulf service station. All that 'white' in the photo tends to concentrate and maintain your attention toward the middle of the page, and the message of the advertisement. Your attention zero's right into the car's wheel, and moves out away from that central point. The idea was not to highlight any particular car, but the service station and its message to the reader. Everything in the ad is bright white or detail-blue. The car even has a blue interior. Very effective, simple composition ad Edited by d500neil 2014-06-23 6:44 PM | ||

Everything in the ad is bright white or detail-blue. The car even has a blue interior. Very effective, simple composition ad When you look at it that way, it does make sense. I see a lot of medium price 57-59 convertibles in all white or all black, probably conservative owners originally. They look sooooo nice in flashier colors, like my current avatar, for instance. | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | The Chrysler Kid - 2014-06-24 6:12 PM Appears to be a biz coupe the blue car. What kind of nut would order white walls, full wheel covers, and bumper wings on a biz coupe? ================================================= This car was reaching the end of its expected life cycle (or beyond) by the time this photo was taken. The tires are probably the 20th set it has worn, and the bumper could easily be a collision replacement. One might also consider that drag guys tended to be car guys in a broader sense and often fixed up older cars like you see this one. | ||

Expert Posts: 3967 Location: DFW, TX | Outside the Bronco Bowl in the Oak Cliff area of Dallas. It opened in 1962, and judging by the cars in the photo, this must be a fairly early image. "Bronco Bowl opened in 1962 with Hollywood celebrity Jayne Mansfield headlining the event. This entertainment playground included something for every restless soul - slot cars, bowling, pool, archery and golf. Don’t forget the Hinkle’s snack bar, dancing at the “The Pit,” and those great concerts featuring performers like the Everly Brothers, REM, U2, Clash, B-52's, the Alarm…an endless list. And, oh, yeah, they had a bowling alley." | ||
