VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage black and white advertisement for Wakefield Castrol Motor Oil. The ad is divided into three sections, each with its own illustration and text. On the left side, under the bold header "WAKEFIELD MOTOR, " there's an image of a rotary engine with propeller blades, indicative of early aviation technology. Below it reads "Rotary" followed by the endorsement: "Used by the Gnome Engine Company and by the BRITISH AIR SERVICES. " The center section features an illustrated Castrol oil bottle with prominent branding. Above this central image is part of the product name "CASTROL OIL, " while below it states "ONE OIL FOR ALL ENGINES, " suggesting versatility across different types of machinery. To the right, labeled as "Stationary, " there's an illustration depicting what appears to be aircraft in flight over a landscape. This section claims suitability for both land and air use: “For the Highway and the Skyway, ” further boasting that it’s “USED BY THE BRITISH & BELGIAN GOVERNMENTS. ” At the bottom center, beneath all three sections, is additional information about C. C. Wakefield & Co. , including their location at Wakefield House, Cheapside, E. C. Overall, this advertisement emphasizes reliability through endorsements from prestigious users like British Air Services and governments while promoting its universal application across various engines.
