Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for another one of their Cosmic Eye Televisions. This ad has a picture of a barn that has the doors slightly opened so we can see past the sign that says “Barn Dance” and view the 24″ Sparton Crusader television that is showing a man in a western outfit playing a fiddle. Next to the television is a rocking chair with another fiddle but no person to play it. The ad headline calls this “TV so real you could almost join the dance!” which is what they want you to think actually happened. At the bottom of this ad are shown some of their Sky Beam Radios such as the Easy-Goer portable, the Tag-Along portable, the Morning Star clock-radio and the Duette which is an 8-tube AM-FM. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
