Ray-Ban
Black and white 3" x 13" ad for their sunglasses with Real Glare Protection. This ad, from a fishing magazine, has a dissertation from a fictional character named Ray Ban. It has a drawing of a smiling man with a mustache wearing a hat and glasses while he grips a pipe between his teeth next to the headline "There is no difference between fish...or is there?" The ad talks about how different fish put up different kinds of a fight and, in the same way, there is no other brand of sunglasses that have the features that Ray-Ban's do. This ad mentions many of the features of these glasses and warns to "look for Ray-Ban on the nosepiece". This ad is taller than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
