Interior of Mueller-Harkins Buick decorated for Christmas, showing Buick logo inset in floor tiles, toys on display and a 1942 Buick convertible under an advertising logo featuring Santa Claus and a V for Victory symbol. The dealership urged the purchase of a new buick as a "Xmas Gift Supreme!" The "ration details" probably referred to gasoline rationing as prevalent during WWII and salespersons would be able to advise how much gasoline the buyer would be permitted to buy to operate the vehicle.
