Description
Black and white 10″ x 13″ ad for Bantron Smoking Deterrent Tablets. The headline, next to a photo of Mickey batting right-handed, has him saying “If you want to stop smoking, I know what can help you”. The text tells the story about how he was exposed to baseball from the time he was born and how he realized that smoking was preventing him from realizing his true potential as a baseball player. He explains how this “little pill” works and gives some history behind the company.
