Description
Black and white 4 3/4″ x 12 1/2″ ad for their Blended Whiskey. The ad has a baseball cartoon with Mr. Smooth as a catcher and Mr. Silk as a baserunner. Mr. Smooth is reaching high for the thrown ball as he says “Kessler never bites or burns…It’s smooth as silk with ice.”. Mr. Silk is sliding into the plate trying to beat the throw and is saying “Kessler makes a double play…it scores on taste and price.” This ad is taller than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
