chew gum for energy

I had scanned in a bunch of ads for this week's Stupid Comics, and then I started thinking about some other ads I'd seen, so I had to go digging some more, and found those ads, a whole bunch of them, so this week's Stupid Comics took a whole new direction and was late. I'm sorry. Anyway here he is in all his glory, PUD.



If that doesn't make you want to chew Dubble Bubble I don't know what will! Also choice ads for White Cloverine Brand Salve, good for what ails ya and also good for shipping firearms through the mail to minors. It's all waiting for you in Stupid Comics!

I don't think the girl is wearing a hat. I think it's a kerchief, the knot hidden under her hair.

There was an episode of THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW, in its color era, when Opie took up the salve-selling racket and was disappointed with his lack of success. Barney and Goober (or was it Gomer?) ran a scam on the salve company that made them buy back Opie's stock and refund his capital investment. That plot has been imitated ever since by dozens of sitcoms.

Really, I hate that I know this.
