have you ever heard of a crazier non-sequitur than Chevrolet advertising on pot holders?

    1. huh! Well, that would be useful with a truck... maybe the potholders were given to people buying Dodge RVs

  3. Can't tell you how many we gave away during new car showing. They were popular with the ladies. Yard sticks popular with the men. A tradition that is no longer done. Perfume was also a give a way. Our Chevrolet rep would come in and lay the catalogue in front of us and tell us the dollar amount we had to order. Seems fair right?

    1. GM did have perfume in the vanity kit in the glovebox, and was forward thinking in getting women to design interiors to impress potential women buyers, https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2018/11/helene-rother-was-one-of-first-women-to.html
