That's framing worthy! lol. Priceless. De Lorean could have been the Elon Musk of his day, or will it be - Elon Musk will be he De Lorean of today? Time will tell. Musk walks the edge for sure - but he's got so much money now I don't see anything stopping him.
I was surprised to find out the ad appeared when the company was already in receivership, but I guess magazine lead times got it. I can imagine the conversations...
Typical mag lead time was five weeks. Cutty Sark may have purchased a block (x many ads to run over y months), perhaps around the first of the year, maybe. I was never that close to the advertising side of magazine publishing, so just a guess.
