In this case, Dyna-Model sent the potential
customer a post-card sized flyer, with artwork from their own advertisements in
the model railroad press, which as they have credited the magazine, must be
artwork wholly or partially 'got-up' by the magazine! Further, the card . . .
isn't; it's actually the same glossy sugar-paper as the original magazines and
may have been provided by the magazine as a kind of reversed advertising?
The mailed owner has subsequently added the
next item issued; R-23 (a sow and piglets), dating the flyer to soon after the
magazine ad's had run so probably the autumn of 1947, or 71 years ago!
The owners of DMP have thought to tantalise the applicant with news of new
products, by hand, on the back of the flyer . . . but then not actually listed
them!
