Now that you mention that, I think the guy in the middle looks like Marc Chevalier.

I love retro advertisements! Especially painted ones with smiling, suited doppelganger-looking white men.

Say - that fellow in the car has a nice hat...

[Baron Kurtz]

when was north by northwest made?

The arrows on the first Stetson ad remind me of the intro to that movie ...

And the dude with the cattleman bash is clearly based on an ageing Cary Grant ...
