Bulova advertised through the war years 41 -44 but I've never seen an ad for 45! The year the war was winding down and finally ended. I would think there would be less ad's from 41-44 because Bulova was concentrating on the war effort. Could it be that Bulova spent there advertising budget on The Bulova school of watchmaking. Which was started in 1945.
After America won the war in 1945, Ardé Bulova, in memory of his father, founded the Joseph Bulova School of Watchmaking. The school was established in order to help teach disabled veterans the skills of watch making. The graduates of this school were assured employment through over 1,500 positions being made available by jewelers all across America. The school was entirely funded by the Bulova Foundation.
What are your thoughts on this guys? Any examples of a 45 ad?
