A color poster from about 1925 presents the "New safety Stutz" and names the Stutz 8, a model from the Stutz Motor Car Company of America in Indianapolis. Indianapolis was a center of American automaking, and Stutz was one of the city's best-known marques, especially for its racing reputation. By the mid-1920s, carmakers increasingly marketed safety, including brakes and sturdier construction, as a selling point, and this poster reflects that shift in emphasis. Its bold color and graphic layout are typical of the advertising art of the period.
