Description
Full color 10″ x 14″ ad that, surprisingly, is for Campbell’s Tomato Soup. The ad says that “It’s Here – Campbell’s Tomato Soup – New Pack” and, below this, there is a drawing of a bushel full of ripened tomatoes and the ad headline here says, “So Stock Up Now On This Best-Liked Soup!”. It then says that “Another autumn’s here – and with it another opportunity to stock up on America’s favorite – Campbell’s Tomato Soup. How well you know its bright, inviting look, its welcome, steaming fragrance, the deep enjoyment you get from every brimming spoonful! That comes first of all from the tomatoes Campbell use – tomatoes specially grown from special seed, tomatoes so full of flavor, so rich in healthful vitamins. And, second, from Campbell’s exclusive recipe, which adds golden table butter and gentle seasoning – to make “the soup most folks like best”. So buy it now. Keep it handy. Enjoy it often”. At the very bottom of this ad there is a very delightful looking bowl of this Tomato Soup and, at the bottom right hand corner of this ad, it says that “It’s Campbell’s Tomato Soup Week…October 16-25. Stock up time!“.
