'New' vintage Jowett?

Post by ian Howell »

On page 14 of Noel Stokoe's book ' Advertising the Marque', the Olympia advert shows 3 cars and a chassis.

The car on the right has 3 side windows, one between the two doors.

It also looks liler a 'stretched' model.

A 'special' perhaps or artist's licence?
The devil is in the detail!

Hi Ian,

That's a good question!

I have to confess I had not noticed the "stretched" Jowett in the picture, I think it had to be artistic licence....

I would love to be proved wrong though!

Noel:-

On reflection I think it was meant to be the Greenhouse saloon, hence three windows, but the idea of a stretched saloon has a certain appeal!

Perhaps the artistic licence should have been endorsed!
