Description
Full color 10″ x 14″ ad for the many values of Candy. This ad has a red background and there is a section cutout in the shape of a heart where a picture is seen of two youngsters on roller skates. The boy is pouring candy from a bag he holds in his hand into the cupped hands of a very appreciative young girl in a red dress. Scattered throughout this ad are a series of sayings like “The ‘Crave for Candy’…often a call for energy”, “America Loves Candy – America Needs Energy”, “Candy’s Dandy. keep it Handy” and “Candy Makes Friends”. The text mentions some health facts that have long been disproved and says enough to cause a person to feel it is his patriotic duty eat candy. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
