Description
Black and white 8 1/2″ x 12″ ad for their Oil Furnaces. There is a picture of two couples sitting at a card table playing a game as they pay no attention at all to the Oil Furnace just inches from the back of one of the ladies. This unit, which the headline calls “The Most Remarkable Oil Furnace ever built”, looks to be big enough to have been something leftover from the Mob in the recently completed days of Prohibition. The text highlights this units Luxurious Heat, the Positive Safety, it’s Absolute Dependability, the Amazing Economy and the fact that you get all of this in One Complete Unit. This ad talks about the Inverted Flame as being very important and mentions Air Conditioning which, in this case, is the conditioning of the air, not the cooling of it.
