Description
Full color 9 3/4″ x 13 3/4″ ad that is for the Bell Telephone System. This ad has a picture of what is predicted to be a mother or a woman of maturity, lying in bed under the covers, talking on the telephone to a person that she is very happy to be talking to. The headline asks “How can something so sensible as a bedside phone be so delightful, too!”. It is answered by saying that “You know, of course, that a bedside extension phone has its practical, everyday virtues. By day, it saves you steps and time. At night, it gives you precious security, for all the world’s within easy reach of your pillow. But a bedside phone has a wonderful bonus as well. Comfort. Beautiful, blissful, delightful comfort when you’re telephoning. It’s useful, and such a pleasure to use! Order from the Business Office or your telephone man”.
