1961 Mercedes-Benz The Car That Looks Down Its Nose Sales Brochure. The car that looks down its nose at the calendar. Promotes not being snobbish, but also not making changes just for change sake. It also promotes the new four-speed automatic transmission. Condition: There is a small raised bump from front to back lower third of brochure towards the middle. It has made a bit of a white spot at that location. See pics.
