Description

This is an original 1958 advertising contest entry flyer from Folger's Coffee. The double-sided piece features bold yellow, red, and black graphics announcing a giveaway of 600 Big Boy barbecues. The front illustrates the deluxe Barbecue Wagon with a $115.00 retail value and the portable Flipperette grill. The reverse side contains the official contest rules, a deadline schedule for weekly contests ending in May 1958, and an unclipped mailing blank with an illustration of Frank Hemingway. This item is a prime example of mid-century grocery store "take one" marketing and cross-promotional advertising between coffee and grilling culture.
