From Argentina, Jul 1940: Air Travel ad from Cia. de Aviación Pan American Argentina S.A. PANAGRA-PANAIR

«I will finally fulfill my desire... Fly!»

[ENGinALT]
An advertisement promoting air travel. Features testimonials and emphasizes the comfort, speed, and cost-effectiveness of flying, especially compared to other modes of transportation. «I will finally fulfill my desire... Fly! My next trip will be by plane. I have been told that flying is so beautiful! I plan to visit several Argentine cities and the main ones in the three Americas. I know that flying on PAN AMERICAN planes is serene, mathematical and free of hassles. In a few hours I will travel what would have taken me days and whole nights, in another means of transport. Also, I confess that I am interested in the economy. The meals on the plane are free, the scales are less frequent, the hotel expenses are lower. THE FAMOUS DOCTOR DR. JOSE ARCE, STATES: "My experience in traveling by air makes me prefer the plane in all cases where there is a regular line available." Former Dean of the Faculty of Medicine THE DISTINGUISHED MISS SUSANA LARGUIA, SAYS: "I fly, not for economy of time, but to continue in the reality of the wonderful flight started, years ago, with Nils Holgersson on the Wild Goose" MR. MASON F. FORD, WELL-KNOWN BUSINESSMAN, SAYS: "In the last 10 years I have flown more than 3,500 hours, I have made 8 round trips to the USA from Bs. Aires and I have crossed the Andes mountain range more than 50 times. I believe I can assure that you can travel with complete confidence, given the efficient and safe way in which this air service is done, which is a true model of public service."»
