Description
Black and white 4 3/4″ x 12 1/2″ ad for their All-Bran Cereal. This ad has a Mutt and Jeff cartoon drawn by Bud Fisher showing why it is important to eat this cereal. The first frame shows Mutt running from his house with his irate wife throwing a rolling pin and calling him a grouch. The next two frames show Mutt talking to Jeff as the problem is discussed. Mutt explains that when he is constipated he becomes “not easy to live with”. He laments that he has tried cathartics with no result and Jeff asks him why he hasn’t tried Kellogg’s All-Bran. Mutt considers this suggestion and promises to give it a try. The last frame shows Mutt and his happy wife riding bicycles together and Jeff said that Mutt must have joined the Regulars.
