Volkswagen Station Wagon Advertisement "They Laughed" (c. 1966)

Volkswagen put out a famous series of advertisements in the 1960's to popularize their products; they usually had an 'underdog' tone like this one.  Based on a Web search I believe this came out about 1966.

I collected advertisements when I was a kid, usually from Time Magazine (which we subscribed to).  I didn't archive them correctly - they have no dates and sometimes I cut off the text of the ad. Some are glued to sheets of paper like this one.  Yet somehow a few have survived.
