Still it would be a nice touch if the city would require advertisers to provide an old ad for their product (if available) or create one stylistically fitting. A "historically accurate" ad for an iPhone would probably be more of an eye catcher than a typical one on this tram.

It should be a privilege to advertise on this nice tram. So advertisers should work a little harder for it.

That would actually be a good idea. And they could even charge extra for the ad placement.

Instead of "are you implying?"

You could just say "trams back then did have advertising on the side!"

Then you'd be educating without judgement.

Maybe he was implying that if this tram is only in use for historic relevance, then maybe it shouldn't be plastered with modern ads, as it somewhat pulls you out of that "historic wonder" mindset. Maybe it could have old historic ads as well.
