Ah, thanks. I was wondering which kind of ad would promote not spending your money, and not buying this wonderful summer package for the happy family! It seemed an anti-ad, but I was unaware it was a wartime ad.
Don't spend your money on wasteful things like travelling when there's a war on...You'll also see this referenced in some old wartime Bugs Bunny cartoons when certain characters ask the question 'Was this trip really necessary?'
Oh! I see. Get it now and love it, thanks for explaining. I didn't get who would be willing to advertise Un-Wonderful Summer Holidays; I'm extremely unfamiliar with wartime US history, me.
