And Now A Word From Our Sponsor, Part 3,462

Mid July , being barbeque season, is a good time to run one of my fave 1950s comic book ads for the Original Kentucky Tavern Barbeque Ash Tray. Beware of buying one that’s not an original but a newfangled cheap shit imitation, I guess. And it’s so much in one: “a miniature fireplace, a cigarette server, a match holder, an ash tray, an incense burner…all in one!” Not only that but it can also be, as pictured, “an attractive decorative planter”. Is there anything this baby can’t do? And all this for only $1.98! What comic reading kid wouldn’t order this, the “most beautiful, most original, most useful ash tray ever made?!?
