69 Charger ad question-mother warned me prospector version

[Ghoste]

I'm sure I've asked this before but to no avail.
The 1969 ad for Charger featuring the old prospector under the "mother warned me" tagline with copy to suit- I have a copy of this ad but it is a reproduction.  I have only seen this ad crop up within the last 5 or 6 years and it has only been as a photocopy at swap meets.
Does ANYONE actually own an orginal copy of this ad?  Can anyone provide a source (magazine, month and year) where it was ACTUALLY used in print?

I'm confused?  This ad?  The reverse side is where it's from. I had it taped on my wall in 69.
My dream car. 69 Charger R/T SE in T5 with white top and stripe.

It's a seldom seen version of that ad.  It is the same car and headline but with an old man and different copy indicating that buying a Charger was his downfall because it attracted evil women (more or less).
I'm looking for hard proof though that it isn't just a spoof someone created.

Yeah would love to see a copy.  Never seen that?

This one?
I have not seen in it actual magazine form yet.

[Ghoste]

That's the one.

I just held my original up to that picture and I say it's original. Here's why. Look at the reflection on the rear bumper to the right of the R/T emblem. The one for the girl is different than the one for the guy. You can see his head distorted on the bumper, and kinda her dress on her shot.
Also the DODGE lettering is higher up on the sand whereas its lower in the man picture.
And his shawdow on the sand, etc...

[Ghoste]

Okay, find me a source then.  (btw, how did they duplicate the ripples in the water for both shots?  )

[Brock Samson]

 That ad is my least Fav. the guy looks like a 45 yr old bum...  I'd rather ride with the chick, sorry..

Clark?

I do not think they would go that far in advertising back then.

I'll say BOGUS!

I have noticed a lot of the truck ad's in that era are touched up photos from the previous year(some cases year's).
I would also think I would have come across an original by now.

   i have seen that one before  either in a mag or on the net somewhere   ,  just cant remember where !!  think its a fake though

check with 6pkrunner, I have purchased over 30 Mopar posters from him and would bet he probably has it.

Believe it or not but I held the two pictures close together and the water marks and ripples differ.  I think ? I wonder how they get the tires so perfect on top of the sand, no sinkage at all.  Looks like she has sand on the foot kicked back.
Just noticed it looks like you can see the tire track for the right tire behind their legs.

I put a cleaner version of the one with the girl and the prospector one on Photoshop and overlaid them. The water ripples are the same, the sun is gleaming off the trunk in the same spot, and there even appears to be some tweaking of the shadows on the old guy. There also appears to be a remnant of the girls shadow left. It is in front of her right (our left) foot. It looks to be her arm or elbow shadow melding with the shadow of the car. A piece of that shadow is there integrated into the shadow of his leg (same shape for the part that meets the car shadow).

Reflections are not hard for Photoshop pros to fake.

The old guy also looks to have 2 different calves and feet?

Its real and was not used very often. It took me a few years to locate a decent copy. Playboy ran it off and on for a few issues. I think mine came out of a Playboy - but be darned if I can remember the month it ran.

[1969chargerrtse]

Wow interesting stuff Brock lee and 6pkrunner.  
So the question is answered.  It's real.

You have to read the full ad to get the point 

[Ghoste]

If you recall the issue 6pk, let me know.  And thanks btw.

The Julia ad is in the nov 68 edition.
They have a advertiser directory on the last page so you don't have to flip thru every page to locate the right issue.Unless of course you really want to.

[Ghoste]

Not the Julia one, it's the prospector one I am hunting.  (thanks though)

[6pkrunner]

Check the reply in your Lee Trevino quest - the Bowling Green "prospector" ad is there also.
