Description
Full color 5″ x 14″ ad that is for the Westinghouse Clothes Dryer. Pictured in this ad is a mother doing laundry with her Westinghouse Clothes Dryer as her son, clad in boots, a full raincoat and a rain hat, stands there teasing that he is going to go outside as the lightning and thunder is crackling. The ad headline says that “It’s raining cats and dogs…but who cares? Every day’s a perfect drying day with a Westinghouse Clothes Dryer”“. It then says that “Blizzard…cloudburst…or rip-roaring gale, the Westinghouse Clothes Dryer ignores them all. In any kind of weather…at any time of day…or night…it dries your clothes with a mere turn of the dial. You wash when you want to, dry when you please”. This ad may be for the Clothes Dryers but, at the bottom of the ad, it shows Refrigerators, Roaster Ovens, Dishwashers, Laundramats, Exhaust Fans, Ranges and Water Heaters that they also sold.
