Description
Three color 5 1/4″ x 13 3/4″ ad that is for Borden’s None Such Mince Meat. This ad starts off with “A Tip From Elsie, The Borden Cow” as she has given a piece of pie to a man who is yelling, “At Last! Mince Pie with that real honest-to-gosh old-time flavor”. Elsie is standing there, very taken with the praise, as she says “I told you Borden’s None Such Mince Meat makes a difference. It’s the spiciest, fruitiest Mince Meat ever”. The ad text says that “There’s nothing in the world like a plump, spicy, golden-brown None Such Mince pie. And that’s because there’s no other mince meat anywhere with the same fine, old-fashioned flavor as Borden’s None Such Mince Meat. All of the 18 ingredients – juicy raisins, currants, tart curls of fruit peel, and savory spices – have been subtly blended by Borden’s master cooks. The result is the most delicious, fruity mince meat you ever tasted. Naturally – just as the best eggs cost more than lower-grade eggs, this finer Borden’s None Such costs more than ordinary mince meat. Only a few pennies more – but what a difference in flavor. So look for the None Such girl on the bright red package – get genuine Borden’s None Such Mince Meat“.
