Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 14″ ad for their Ginger Ale. This wartime ad has a picture of a lady in a uniform serving her young son cookies and Canada Dry Pale Ginger Ale at their kitchen table. The ad, noting her uniform, asks What service is she in?” and offers answers like “WAVE? WAC? SPAR? Marine?” before saying “None of these”. The answer comes that she is a taxicab driver and explains that women who used to do more feminine jobs are now “doing something about the manpower shortage”. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
