It’s hard to find vintage Husqvarna Chainsaw ads, especially given the company’s long history, but we’ve got a bit of a collection going here.
You can buy original copies and prints of many of these ads on eBay.
Here are some examples of good sellers:
Now, let’s get into the ads!
The Husqvarna 181 XP EASY RIDER!
The 181 is an 80.7 cc saw that was introduced in 1982.
An ad for the Husqvarna 50 Rancher, the original Rancher chainsaw.
“The look, feel, and sound of it… Everything about the Husqvarna spells quality.”
The 40cc Husqvarna 240 SE/SG were made 1971 to 1982.
The Husqvarna 40, a small 40cc chainsaw made from 1978 to 1991.
An ad for the Husqvarna “Smart Start” 42D.
