This is an original advertisement, not a reproduction. It is sold as is - unmatted & unframed. This Admiral advertisement comes from the August 1945 issue of McCall’s. This ad features an onion telling a woman that the right refrigerator for her is an Admiral. Not weird at all! It also includes several paragraphs all about the features & performances of the fridge. This ad is perfect for decorating your kitchen. Measurements: 8 x 11 Condition: Good (Item shows minor ripped or torn edges. There may also be minor creasing, discoloration, & curling) Display: This ad would look best framed (with or without matting). Archivist’s Note: It is common for ads to show discoloration, wear & tear, curling, & ripped edges. Though I mostly find & sell ads that are in good condition, there will still be some imperfections present. Below is some additional information on how to safely & properly preserve & display your new treasures (this applies to ads, postcards, & photographs): The paper used to print older magazines & newspapers is highly acidic, causing it to become yellow & brittle over time. Since acid can easily spread to other documents, be sure to keep your purchase safe & protected by using acid-free matting & glass frames, which can be purchased at craft stores & specialty frame shops. Avoid cheap plastic frames! If you plan to hang your item facing the sun or in a bright room, consider purchasing a frame that protects the paper from harmful UV light, which can cause fading over time. If you are simply collecting ads, postcards, & photos to store in an album or binder, stick with acid-free binders & albums. in addition, use polypropylene plastic sleeve protectors instead of plastic. If storing without sleeves, you can use acid-free tissue paper in between pages. Avoid storing albums in attics or basements where the temperature fluctuates & where they would be susceptible to pests & water damage.
