And not one in a hundred cars had a radio - I remember stickers in
secondhand cars proudly proclaiming *Heater* back in the 50s.....



Gosh. I remember those stickers in windscreens of second hand cars.
That takes me back:-))


Mater had an Austin A35 with push up windows.
She later traded it for an A70 with "wind up windows" duly
proclaimed by the sticker you have mentioned.

That's progress:-)

But that was really just cosmetic. Labelling didn't get serious until
we started seeing cars with a "Disc Brakes" sticker to let you know
that it could actually stop.
