I like page 16, where it says

> Metal to rubber of asphalt ribbons plugged into Vietnam and the price of aerosolled ketchup thru WDBJ Star City via the chromium telescoping finger. 700 miles of the great highway turn on, 13 hours of keeen-sell survival service and all the gear to keep the wheels flying. ... All the cardboard cities and the X-ray of us all on the giant billboards. And buy me, lay me hot dog-burgers.

I don't know if anyone has ever expressed that idea so succinctly. Beautifully put!




What is this referring to? I can't understand any of this.


me neither. it's the kind of random gibberish that SEO bots insert into auto-generated pages. but it's in the middle of the page of a catalog from 1968! surprising.
