Sorry for delay in this but here is the promised RolaMatics advert in color I have in my collection.
It is in Dutch language as it probally is from a Belgium comic magazine.

I collect Matchbox ads and must have over 100 of them. I don't have a scanner unfortunatly.
Christian Falkensteiner shows quite a lot of Matchbox ads on his website. (all of these ads are in german language and you can click on ecah picture to make the photo bigger to see it more in detail)

Very nice Marcel, thanks for showing them. I love looking at the artwork and it would be great to see some more. If you can't scan them maybe photos would work

I have seen the Matchbox adverts on Christian's site previously and they are brilliant, thoroughly recommended viewing for all forum members here.

It is in Dutch language as it probally is from a Belgium comic magazine.
The Flemish are linguistic purists and so would have used "zuigers" (the Dutch word for pistons). The Dutch are much more easy-going and do not have any problem using loan words. I therefore think that it probably came from a Dutch rather than a Belgian comic.
