What sounded familiar?


Throughout Monday’s editorial on tomorrow’s unveiling of the new Cruze, slogans from Chevrolet advertising campaigns dating as far back as 1922 were repeated or paraphrased. The references were culled from a compilation in the October 2011 issue of Advertising Age.

12There were a few phrases that the reader may (or may not) recall that defied our efforts at inclusion. Among them: “The heartbeat of America,” 1987; “An American revolution,” 2004; “That Chevy feeling,” 1957; “A six (cylinder) in the price range of a four,” 1929, and “Man’s conquest of time,” 1923. Maybe next time.
