When I want opinions on hot dogs, I want Damon Runyon's wife's opinion on hot dogs!

Or perhaps, Mrs Runyon was well-known for her hot dog expertise?

And now I feel old! Okay, he did die before I was born, but he was talked about for a long time. He wrote humorous stories about gamblers and hustlers and mobsters. If you've seen or heard of Guys and Dolls, that Damon Runyon. If not, now I feel old.

One thing for sure, her husband certainly wasn't having hot dogs for dinner at home-he was probably having his meals at places like Toots Shor's and the Stork Club.

Great find! How bizarre!

Those are some sausage-like hotdogs in there. Ooh! Perhaps we've found the missing links!

*shudder* Why, oh why do they think creamed diced carrots in onion cups, no less, sounds palatable? The hot dogs look a touch suspect too. ;)

Ugh...I have no idea how people ate in the 40s and 50s. It's all too bizarre.

I was born in the 50's and we never ate anything like that, including all that gross jello that advertisements tried to convince people was so good, lol. Damn, makes my skin crawl. ;)

I wonder who the ad agency made the endorsement check out to ... the Mrs., or the Mr.

Photographing a food advertisement in black-and-white is rarely a good idea.

Touching it up with bright red is even less often an improvement.
