Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 12″ ad for their Hair Tonic for Men. The top of the ad has a close-up picture of a lady’s eyes with the caption “What kind of man uses Vaseline Hair Tonic?”. There are a series of photos that tell a story of a man, who uses Vaseline Hair Tonic, watching a lady losing at a Blackjack table. He realizes that the dealer is using a highly polished ring to allow himself to see the cards and deal the card that will keep the lady losing. Our hero grabs the hand of the dealer, forcing him to deal the card from the top of the deck that gives the attractive and suddenly thankful lady a hand of 21. The end of the ad tells us that “The man who knows how to take care of himself uses Vaseline Hair Tonic“. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
