The Packard Executive Series

Color fold-out brochure for the 1958 Packard Executive Series. The front cover shows the front end of a yellow Packard with a man and a woman standing to the left. The back cover shows "1956 Packard Executive Specifications," printed in black text on a blue background. The first inside page shows a right side view of a red Packard with a man and a woman standing in the background, and also features text and illustrations of the Packard V-8 engine. Text at top left reads "For you who have looked forward to the satisfaction of owning a Packard, the Executive Series is an invitation to enter the luxury-car class now...at a modest investment. These beautiful cars ably uphold the half-century-old tradition of quality that has made the name Packard world famous." When completely unfolded, the brochure shows illustrations and text showing a green Packard Executive hardtop, a blue Packard Executive 4-door sedan, a view of the interior back seat, and examples of "Packard Engineering," including torsion-bar suspension, twin-traction safety differential, automatic load levelizer, power steering, and power brakes.
