Description

Durkee Ad October 1951Full color 10″ x 13″ ad for their Margarine. This ad introduces a contest that the company was having to send in five words that describe the superior qualities of this product. There were over 200 prizes with the First Grand Prize being a two-week vacation and a new Packard. An unusual aspect of the prizes at this time was that they promised the “Federal Income Tax Paid”. The second Grand Prize was a two week vacation in Florida without the Packard. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
