| Full color 9 1/2" x 13 1/2" ad for their Complete Cheese Pizza Mix. The picture shows a pair of feminine hands holding out a freshly baked pizza while, in the background, several couples of young people are dancing unaware that the pizza is ready. The headline calls it "The party-time pizza with the crispy, one-step crust" and the text describes the ease with which these can be completed. It mentions that it was available, at this time, in Cheese or Sausage and reasons that you don't have to wait for a party to have one, "Bake one up anytime pizza hunger strikes in your home". |

| Full color 9 1/2" x 13" ad for their Pepperoni Pizza in a box. The ad has a large picture of one of these pizzas as it would come from you oven under the headline "The spice, tang and sizzle of pepperoni pizza, now in a mix". There is also a picture of a fresh pepperoni that has had several slices cut off and another picture that shows the ingredients you get to make this pizza and the box it comes in. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view. |
