Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for their Athletic Shoes. This ad dwells upon results and claims that there have been “Thirteen National Championships won on Keds!” and shows a picture of a man serving in a tennis match. The ad lists the National Tennis Championships that had been won in the previous year by contestants wearing Keds and makes the claims that “That’s why champion tennis players today almost without exception wear Keds“. Shown in the ad are an example of one of their Crepe-sole Keds that were popular, a Keds Oxford that was “designed for general wear as well as for sports” and an athletic-trim Keds that looks like at least a size 20. The text gives a price range of from $1.25 to $4.50 per set.
