CHI-CHES-TERS for PFD

Earlier versions of this pill were for other purposes, according to one site. Here's a PAGE FULL of their earlier ads featuring pennyroyal, from 1885-1942.

Summitville Tiles, Inc., 1957
Check out the room in the background - apart from the Centaur, it looks groovy. The language teacher in me is also intrigued by the non-plural-yet-plural "wherever interior tile are used". Tiles are/ Tile is both work, curiously, so at least today it's one of a small group that can be both count and non-count, but I've not seen it used as a non-plural (e.g., sheep, deer, fish, etc.) /boring aside

Another classic Summitville Tiles ad lies behind the cut.
( Do NOT miss this one! )

Chiquita Banana 1940s
Jul. 26th, 2012 10:29 pmI'm watching TV, and there was an ad for a refrigerator. It showed bananas inside the fridge. And I recalled my dad singing, "Never put bananaaaaaas in the refrig-er-a-tor!"
So I looked it up. Here it is!
