Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for their Thinline Air Conditioners. The ad shows a Family Room where a Ping Pong Table has been set up and is in use with the G.E. Thinline Air Conditioner protruding so little from the wall that no return play is interfered with. The main headline claims that the “All new G-E Thinline Air Conditioner takes up 1/3 less space!” and that the “G-E Thinline is 16 1/2 inches ‘thin’…no unsightly overhang!”. There are other claims in the text that reveal that there is no loss of performance between this air conditioner and a full size one. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
