Johns-Manville	Black and white 7 1/2" x 11 1/2" ad for their Blown-in Insulation. The ad has a picture of a serviceman standing on a ladder that is leaned up against a house and is blowing the Johns-Manville Home Insulation through a drilled hole into the inner layers of the house. The ad headline claims that "Now we can blow new comfort into your house" and the ad text talks about the process, gives five reasons to consider this product and lists the "Territory covered by J-M Home Insulation contractors".

Johns-Manville	Black and white 5" x 11 1/2" ad that is for the insulation that is like it is "From a Fiery Volcano - Cool Comfort in Sweltering Weather". There is nothing like comparing your product to the best thing possible. They advertise a Johns-Manville book Comfort That Pays For Itself as the whole fascinating story. This product is another in the "expanding blanket" kind and they do quite a bit of selling in the ad.	July 1938 Better Homes & Gardens	1	$8.50	View Insulation 4
Kimsul	Black and white 5" x 11 1/2" ad ffor this product from the Kimberly Clark Corporation. It is claimed to be "Flexible. Fits any space", an "Expanding Blanket Insulation". The top photo show a woman wearing a fur coat looking at a roll of this product shown to her by a man in a suit. Their logic is that "When a new house settles, Kimsul will not pack down into the walls and create "transoms" through which heat can escape, nor will it pull away from the studs leaving uninsulated openings on the sides". There is a list of nine requirements listed that they want you to consider when you are buying.	July 1938 Better Homes & Gardens	1	$8.50	View Insulation 3
Wood Conversion Company	Black and white 7 1/2" x 11 1/4" ad for their Balsam-Wool Blanket Insulation. The ad has a picture of a workman tucking some of this product against the studs of an unfinished wall. The ad headline brags that "It won the North Country!...this amazing 'Wool' from Wood. Now it is available everywhere...true house insulation, a full inch thick and FLEXIBLE". The ad text covers some of the features of this product, mentions another product called Nu-Wood which it describes as being an all wood insulating wall board and lath and has a coupon that could be mailed into the company to start advertising coming your way.
