with apologies to Ogden Nash...
First time I've seen a car ad that saw fit to mention the hood ornament, I think.
Pinin Farina as two words was interesting...seems the designer did in fact legally combine his nickname (Pinin) and his last name (Farina) into a new last name in 1961.
I did not know it was ever two words, I assumed a bad North American translation. The stuff ya learn. :-)
The trout ad makes my teeth hurt.
The patterned roller is for putting a design into wet concrete... as I recall, there might be a patent but it has been many years...
