Surely nobody cares how aerodynamic a road roller is.
If it gets the kids to school all is fine.
That may well be a Raymond Loewy design by the way.
He was involved with International Harvester at the time.
OTOH, the ad appears to be a fake: http://www.weirduniverse.net/blog/co...d_by_doris_day
Most notably, in the comments section:

Yes, this is one of mine. The roller is hand-drawn, and I deliberately placed poor Doris teetering on the edge with no ladder or means to get down . "Series 56" was off the top of my head - and the reason that the ad is full of spurious information (vs. carefully researched facts) is that it was never intended to be a hoax, or to fool people, it was a half-hour photoshop & airbrush lark done to amuse my friends at lunchtime. It migrated off my personal facebook page; it wasn't done for the public at large. It's so obviously a joke, I can't understand why people would waste their time parsing the content, trying to find 'proof' that it's 'fake.' Kudos to those of you who chalked it up to foolishness, because that's all it was ever supposed to be - a glance and a laugh (hopefully).

Happy April 1st Easter, everyone...
