(PLEASE CLICK HERE TO SEE OUR OTHER ITEMS CURRENTLY LISTED ON EBAY.)
CIRCA 1947 TO 1949 QUACK MEDICINE PITCH BOOK FOR MR. CARL BRANDENFELS’ RENEWED HAIR GROWTH APPLICATION. ARCHIVE CONTAINS 33 PHOTOGRAPHS OF CUSTOMERS AND THEIR TESTIMONIAL LETTERS PLUS ONE CIRCULAR WITH AN ORDER FORM. SOME OF THE CUSTOMERS ARE DOCUMENTED IN “BEFORE AND AFTER” PORTRAITS. IN ADDITION TO CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS, BRANDENFELS INCLUDES A LETTER FROM AN ACCOUNTING FIRM’S AUDIT DOCUMENTING THE QUANTITY OF SATISFIED CUSTOMERS ALONG WITH A CHAMBER OF COMMERCE LETTER SUPPORTING HIS OPERATION HEADQUARTERED IN ST. HELENS, OREGON.
THE MAJORITY OF PHOTOGRAPHS ARE 8-1/2" X 11" AND HAVE THREE HOLES PUNCHED ALONG ONE VERTICAL EDGE FOR INSERTION INTO A BINDER. TWO OF THE IMAGES ARE 6-3/4" X 10" AND POSSIBLY TRIMMED TO REMOVE THE HOLES. ALL LETTERS OF TESTIMONIALS AND OTHER MANUSCRIPTS ARE ACTUALLY PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE MANUSCRIPT (MOST CERTAINLY THE EASIEST WAY FOR REPRODUCTION OF A SMALL QUANTITY OF TESTIMONIAL COPIES FOR SALES REPRESENTATIVES' PITCH BOOKS). CONDITION: OCCASIONAL BENDS AND EDGE CREASES. SCUFFING, LIGHT SOILING, EDGE BUMPS. THE ORIGINAL BINDER IS NO LONGER PRESENT.
