Description
Three color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for Chase & Sanborn Coffee. The ad has a picture of this smiling down-home star holding a cup of coffee in one hand and pointing toward the camera with the other. The caption has him saying “‘Take it from Old Ern’ Tennessee Ernie Ford himself ‘This is the one instant that makes downright dee-licious coffee'”. The ad talks about the taste test that showed that Chase & Sanborn is more popular by a 2 to 1 vote and mentions the Tennessee Ernie Ford television show on daytime TV. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
