VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement featuring a man in profile, wearing a suit and holding what appears to be technical documents or blueprints. Above his head is a thought bubble that reads ". . . for all these operations our bombers use Croydon Motors" followed by a list of various aircraft components and systems such as "RETRACTION (UNDERCARRIAGE) TAIL CHASSIS, " "PROPELLER CONTROL, " "WING FLAP OPERATION, " "PUMPS & COMPRESSORS, " "BOMB DOOR OPERATION, " and "BOMB HOIST OPERATION. " At the bottom of the ad, it encourages readers to "Consult CROYDON" with an address for Croydon Engineering Co. , Ltd. located on Commerce Way, Purley Way, Croydon. The overall design suggests that this advertisement was likely created during an era when aviation technology was rapidly advancing, possibly around World War II given the reference to bombers and bomb-related equipment.
