Advertising vintage 2

I received from a friend, and gladly share with you, these two advertising images of our Dogs: Let's look together.

The first should go back to 1979, the year in which the production of Dogs began. In the upper left corner, the advertising of the Study of Ravenna AGR wanted to highlight, tape flag, the 'Italian style of our Dogs.

the middle, into the great logo Classis of the yards, we see the design of the Dogs and the writing that recalls the earlier models and Dingo Boxer.

bottom right shows the technical characteristics, although not all correct, and the names of the designer Prof. (?) Nicola Belardi, which is reproduced the large face, and interior architect Franco Verlicchi.

Di Franco Verlicchi non sappiamo nulla; se cerchiamo su Google troviamo molte informazioni su un artista romagnolo scomparso alcuni anni fa. Si tratta forse di lui? Ho inviato una mail a Bibi Guerra per chiedergli lumi in proposito, attendo risposta.
In basso a destra vediamo l'elenco dei concessionari italiani della Classis; si spazia da Milano a Brindisi. Chissà se qualcuna di queste è ancora attiva.

Sempre a destra vediamo i loghi della Volvo Penta, che forniva i motori, e della prestigiosa Goiot che forniva parte dell'attrezzatura di coperta.

Nella seconda immagine vediamo invece l'esterno di un pieghevole che invita a visit the 21 ° International Boat Show in Genoa in 1981 to see for themselves the goodness of the boats built by the shipyard Classis.

The exhortation is translated into English, German and French, a sign of the export policy of the boats not only domestically but in Europe.

It 's very interesting to note that the yard is no longer in Godo but Russians only a few kilometers from its original place.

Inside the leaflet are the drawings of the models in production Classis: Sir Arthur (11.70 m.), the Lady Laura (10.50 meters), our Hound (8.50 m ) and then the novelty of the exhibition, the First Lady (11.00 m.).

While the first three boats are known, the First Lady is not even a trace with the search engines.

We can infer that it was built in only a few examples if not, the one presented at the Salon of 1981.

I hope that this small flashback of the history of Hound and yards Classis there has intrigued and pleasantly entertained in our Blog.

Greetings to all e. .. next time! : O)
