Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for Stokely – Van Camp’s Improved Pork and Beans. This ad starts off with the drawing of the Stokely – Van Camp little man next to the headline saying “Easy way to turn outdoor meals into Backyard Banquets!”. Below this is a very tasty-looking photograph showing an outdoor meal with a big kettle full of Stokely – Van Camp’s Pork and Beans surrounded by lettuce, a bottle of Stokely’s Finest Tomato Catsup and Stokely’s Finest Hamburger Dill Pickle Slices. The text says that you should “Serve the Pork and Beans with Savory Flavor! The best sauce means the best-tasting beans. The secret savory sauce in Van Camp’s Pork & Beans is fuller, richer and seasoned with specially-good spices for wonderful savory flavor no other pork & beans can equal. Make your next outdoor meal into a Backyard Banquet. Fix a big bowl of Van Camp’s, America’s favorite Pork & Beans. They’re the easy part of the meal…and the best part. Every bite makes the sun and fresh air of outdoor eating even better”.
