Original vintage magazine advertisement for Travelers Insurance, carefully removed from a 1947 publication.
This unusual mid-century ad features an illustrated Chuckwalla lizard. The desert reptile’s loose skin is used as a metaphor to promote insurance coverage protecting against fire, storm, burglary, accident, and automobile damage, using the tagline:
“Why Chuckwalla wears a slack suit”
The reverse side contains a health and nutrition themed ad from Metropolital Life Insurance Company promoting a balanced diet and healthy eating habits.
The page measures approximately 7 × 10 inches.
Two small chips are present along the left edge from the original magazine staple binding. The main image area remains clean and displays well, especially when framed.
