Cannon
Full color 9 1/2" x 13" wartime ad that reminds you that, in these trying times, it is important that what you buy is of good quality. The ad has a picture of a pretty girl riding her bicycle with her handlebar basket filled with fruit and groceries. There is a smaller picture of this same girl standing and holding up an oversized label like the one that comes on all of Cannon's products and the headline says "It's a good sign for the times". The text talks about the features you will find in their towels and shows many of the colors and patterns that were available. A smaller picture says that "Cannon has a war job, too" and claims they were equipping the boys "in Ireland and Quantico, Australia and Pensacola" while still filling the needs of those at home. The bottom of the ad mentions Cannon Sheets and Cannon Hosiery.
