A friend of my wifes gave her some old Corvette books. Among them was a brochure for 54's.It is on white paper and has black and green lettering.On the front it says Chevrolet corvette for 1954, and below that in larger green letters it say The First All-American Sports Car. And this is written in script.Inside there are pictures and a nice write up about the car.It has all the specs on the back page.Is this something that the dealer had in the showromm? Or is it something that came with the owners packet? It is in like new condition.It has no copy right date but it does say in small print litho in the U.S.A. ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED.

Bob, that is the one! The guy does look like Elvis! Do you think this was something the dealer handed out? The one I have came from Long Island N.Y., where did yours come from do you know?Comment

Re: 54 Brochure? What is it?
Tom, I don't know where it came from. But it does appear to be a real GM pub. If you look at the fine print weasel language on the bottom of the last page Seems they had the lawyers on staff back then too...ha ha

Re: 54 Brochure? What is it?
There were 4 of this style of brochure. All had different colors. There were green, red, brown (which had 5th reprint on it), and "supposedly" blue or aqua ones.
The blue/aqua is very rare. I've never seen one, but have been told it exits.
I have the other 3 colors in my collection.
These are dealership handout brochures. Chuck1963 Corvette Conv. 327/360 NCRS Top Flight
