What Was Our Industry Like in 1912?

Recently a good friend gifted me with a rare historical find. Going through his late grandfather's "stuff" he came across a solicitation from The Oakland Advertising Company located in Akron, Ohio, mailed December 3, 1912. This company offered a "full line of advertising novelties, calendars, rubber novelties, etc". Holding this piece of history in my hand reminded me of how long custom imprinted products have been around! For my video on this, click here.
