Description
Full color 10″ x 13″ ad for their Frozen Dinners or, as it says on the box, a TV Dinner. There is a picture of a Swanson TV Brand Turkey Dinner looking more carefully prepared and tasty than any I remember my Mother making for us to place on our fold-up tables that we would then jockey for prime position in front of our 13′ Black and White set. The headline urges you to “Trust Swanson! Now more turkey than ever, all from meaty breasts and thighs” and another caption promises 20% more turkey than before. The text describes a delicious meal and mentions “12 Delicious TV Dinners to choose from” without giving a clue as to what they were.
