Back then, that might have been good! Keep in mind, at that point in time, cars were still in their infancy.
I've got a few late 1800's and early 1900's national geographics with Ads like this.. I should reall share them with the History furs once I get the time.
YES! I would so love to see them! Some of my favorite things about old books and magazines are the ads! Do you actually HAVE the old NG's? I would be SOOOO jealous! My oldest is 1922. Man, if I had an original October 1888 NG, I could die happy.
I believe the oldest one I have is early 1890's
I also have some from quite early WWII, where there are colour images of Sweeden shutting down and reenforcing their border-crossings as the war-front moves in just a few miles away.

okay, my memory didn't serve me too well.
it's a NG from Febuary 1940, and there's an article on The Netherlands. though it does seem like a regular NG article, not paying too much attention to the rising war; it does showcase some of the wartime peperations The Netherlands were taking, a mere 3 months before Germany marches over the border.
