Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 12″ ad for the Smith-Corona Portable Typewriters. The ad has a picture of one of their typewriters with a Red (Brown) Fox sitting behind it holding it’s electric cord in it’s mouth. In a takeoff of the sentence that contains all of the words of the alphabet the headline claims “The quick brown fox has met his master. The speed of electric typing in a portable and only Smith-Corona makes one”. The ad talks about the sturdy construction of these units and the full five-year guarantee. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
