This original vintage print advertisement showcases the Narco Mark 16 solid-state nav/com system, a revolutionary piece of aviation technology from the late 1960s. The artwork features a detailed close-up of the radio unit's interface, highlighting its distinctive control knobs, digital readouts, and the sleek black panel design. The text emphasizes the unit's advanced solid-state reliability, field-effect transistors, and compact 'Mark width' design that made it a staple in general aviation cockpits of the era.
Produced by Narco Avionics, a division of Narco Scientific Industries based in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, this advertisement is a fantastic piece of aeronautical history. It captures the transition to solid-state electronics in the aerospace industry, making it an ideal collectible for pilots, aviation enthusiasts, or collectors of mid-century technical advertising. The layout includes technical specifications and a secondary image of the VOA-50M omni/ILS indicator, providing a comprehensive look at the avionics technology of the time.

Unless noted above, all of my ephemera products are Original and free of rips or tears. Vintage print ads invariably have some degree of wear, especially near the binding. Also, some fading is possible, as is the smudge or run of inks during production.
As expected with vintage paper, there may be some natural darkening, and foxing may be present. Generally speaking, I will not offer for sale an item with any substantial condition issues unless it's of great quality, scarcity, or it has some other exceptional characteristic, and the issues would be described in detail.
