Flashback: Animal Print Dashboard Covers

May 3, 2013 By Nadeem Muaddi

The Hog Ring - Auto Upholstery Community - Upholster Your Dashboard Popular Science 1951

Was there ever a time when professional auto upholsterers didn’t have to contend with cheap aftermarket products? This ad appeared in a September, 1951 issue of Popular Science magazine.

It makes me wonder… were pimps really reading Popular Science in the 1950’s? (Just kidding, tacky was in style back then!)
