Description
Full color 10″ x 13 1/2″ ad with a drawing of a young man buried in a ton of money. He has a very worried look on his face which, along with his hands, is the only part of him that can be seen. His hands are grasping a bottle of Dr. Pepper and the sign that is attached to this picture is “Please stop sending us money!”. The descriptive part of the ad says there is “No need to order Dr. Pepper by mail any more…it’s almost sure to be on sale in your town by now. Start looking!”. It is being said that until this year, Dr. Pepper has not been available everywhere. That meant that lots of people have been sending direct to Dallas for their supply of this precious drink. They feel that Dr. Pepper has become America’s more-than-refreshing soft drink. The feeling is that if you haven’t been able to find Dr. Pepper in your town, you just haven’t looked everywhere.
