Postcards: Gambling with Goodyear

I saw this ad, and was fascinated:




When I read "send a postcard to," my interest was piqued.  I told Carley "I want to write to Goodyear to see if they'll honor an offer they made in an ad in 1962."  She said "you should."  And so I got to work!

I started with this postcard from Life.




I threw in a map to Akron, home of Goodyear.




I wasn't sure if all my pieces would provide sufficient coverage, so I cut out this repeating Life pattern.




A nice bit of text providing the setting.





Collage, assemble!
