Description

Aunt Jemima Ad 1944Three color 5 1/4″ x 13 1/2″ ad that has a cartoon that is entitled “Unexpected Guests”. In response to the opening title it comes back with the answer Aunt Jemimas provides a warm welcome” and shows the front door of a house being opened when the word is out that they are cooking Aunt Jemimas pancakes. The family of four (plus the dog) has been invaded by four more people who, it seems, were just looking for someone having a good meal. It has Aunt Jemima saying “Folks smile from ear to ear when they eats my Aunt Jemima Pancakes” as there is a plate of three sitting there with a big slice of butter on top. There is an Orange Sauce on Aunt Jemimas recipe at the bottom as well as the information that you should “Get both the Red Box for pancakes and waffles – the Yellow Box for buckwheats”.
