Here’s another dandy ad from an old comic book of mine. It’s a black-and-white ad for a bunch of gadgets and gizmos available by mail-order from the “American Circle Corp”. There’s the silent dog whistle, exploding fountain pen, 25 lessons in hypnotism, spy scope, secret agent spy camera, sneezing powder, karate course with certificate and the ever popular x-ray specs. Each of the items only cost you a few bucks and are more fun than a barrel full of monkeys.
I wonder if any of these things worked - did anyone every buy these things? To see the much larger scanned copy of this classic ad, click here.
