    Description

    Texaco "No thanks!" full page magazine advertisement.  Shocking hand drawing and text.
    This is the hand of Japan and the dictator nations...not a pretty hand.  It offers the world a starvation diet...starvation of body and mind and soul.  Boastfully it presents its standard of living and its standard of thinking.  America says "No thanks" with thousands upon thousands of planes and tanks and warships.  We, of The Texas Company, say "No thanks" with millions of gallons of 100 - octane gasoline for our war planes.  We say "No thanks" by building vast new plants to produce Toulene, vital in making highly explosive TNT....and to produce Butadiene for synthetic rubber.
    We have turned the knowledge and skill gained in making Texaco Fire-Chief and Sky Chief Gasolines to the large scale production of these wartime necessities.
    So it has been with all American business.  From strength built in peacetime comes the force of the mighty "NO" which today rises from the throat of industry.
    The Texas Company.
    Page has some minor wrinkles and bends.  It has been handled and read.  Magazine it came from was damaged, without cover, etc.  Page measures 8 1/8" x 11 1/2".  Opposite side has full page ad for Kodak photography.
    I'll place the ad page in a plastic sleeve and add a piece of white foam board for mailing by USPS First Class in a bubble envelope.
    I'll mail the same day, or next day after PayPal payment is received.
