Sorry I had to hack the page up this way, but it was from one of those bedsheet magazines big enough to take a nap under. Maybe I can buy a huge industrial-size scanner and charge it as a business expense ("But Mr IRS Man, I need it for my blog...!")










One funny aspect of 1943 and 1944 ads is that literally everything from pipe tobacco to sandwich meat is tied in with the war effort somehow. You don't usually find machine guns and feminine hygiene products mentioned together.
