Ephemera Collection:

Chevrolet Perfume and Cologne Samples

These perfume and cologne samples used to be given out by Chevrolet car dealers.  There are not a lot that have survived the test of time, which is why I decided to collect them.  You may notice that some are from the same place---Harry H. Diehl Motor Sales.  Luckily, Harry's wife had the foresight to save the unused promotional items and maintained them in nearly mint condition.  Most samples were not so lucky.  Sorry, none of these items are available for sale.
