Looks like an early work of George Pal who did stop action cartoons. The Polaroid 3d presentation probably was done originaly with polarized images which required Polaroid viewing glasses. I first saw this demonstrated in 1942-43 when the Army Air Corps used it for 3-D arial photo mapping. Those Chrysler products sure look ugly now. Neat film. Looks like an early work of George

Yes, interesting they underestimated the growth in technology AND the need to reduce consumption. They also assumed USA superiority in all things===and kept that up until just about last week? #2–Jag==nice links.

But what a clip! And I'd love to have that factory fresh Chrysler right now, I'll bet it's worth a little more than the 1939 sticker price. My grandparents had one, or a '40, it was a fine automobile. I wouldn't mind driving a Plymouth Prowler for a week. Maybe a Viper.
