    I came across the following half-page advertisement in an edition of
    Punch dated 29 October 1952:

    "For the roads of Britain and 133 other countries. 30 individually
    different models to meet the requirements of the doctors and
    professional men of our own country, the lady-shopper or school-boy or
    girl ... and 30 additional models to meet the curiously different
    climatic and road conditions (which Hercules have studied) of 133
    countries overseas".

    Would the New Statesman, the Spectator or other similar magazine carry
    a half-page ad like this today?
