Description
Black and white 10″ x 14″ ad for their answer for why your electric razor won’t work. The ad headline says “Hey! don’t throw that gift electric razor away!” and the ad will tell you why. There are three pictures along the right hand side. The first is a man showing his temper by reaching out as he makes a face and the headline says “Stop! It’s not the razor’s fault!”. In the second picture the man has a more hospitable look on his face as he pours some Williams Lectric Shave on his hands and the text says “All you need is Williams Lectric Shave…Put some on your face before you shave”. In the third picture he is shaving and the man who was grumpy, no, furious, in the first picture is now smiling as the text says “Williams Lectric Shave sets up beard…lubricates skin…evaporates perspiration…gives you better shaves with any razor – any time”.
