I am completely captivated by these  ads - in particular for the many little floating sleepers, each carefully catalogued and named! :D

Englander Mattress, 1947-1953

Are you a busybody? a bird dog? a big boy? streamlined? fitful? topsy and turvy?
Are you perhaps an ostrich, an angel pie, a slumberbug?  Or a jackknife, a cuddler, a "good morning glory"? 
Are you a catnapper? a windmill? expansive? a traveler? a swan diver?
Or even a commando? a twister? a halfback? a cowboy?  a bulldozer?  a mannequin?
JUST ADDED: the log, jitterbug, lazybones, and the ballerina!





FIVE more full size ads below the cut!
Which one are you? )
