Description
Black and white 5″ x 11 1/2″ ad for the Oil Burner Furnace that was intended to get rid of the need for coal in the home. There is a picture of a housewife wearing a dress and an apron holding a shovel filled with coal. She is looking behind her toward a voice that has told her to “Drop That Shovel!” and the promise that “Carefree Oil Heat is yours for less than ever before!”. The ad gives a list of nine features that made the Williams Oil-O-Matic worth looking into.
