Vintage airplane ads (warning; lots of large images)

The aircraft manufacturer deceptive advertising to non-pilots thread got me to searching for old ads; while there are some nice sites with a lot of images, the quality of most is borderline but worth browsing, such as this site:

Here are a few old (and large) images I found that I thought worth sharing for those who are interested in this sort of thing (since these are hot-linked, they may vanish in the future):

You know, it's partially scary when the plane you see in the above ads is yours.

On the plus side, you don't need to worry about gear-up landings, eh?
