Excerpt:
“The Cannon name, that’s long been your buying-guide to good towels and sheets, now appears on full-fashioned, pure silk stockings!
Cannon has been making hosiery for fifteen long years…studying it…testing it…bettering it…beautifying it.
Maybe you’ve even worn this hosiery, made by Cannon but sold under a name belonging to your favorite store.
Now, however, the hosiery is readily identified by the Cannon name and goes forward with all the support of this vast organization.”
This is a 85 yr. old original vintage ad removed from a 1938 publication and is not a reproduction of any kind.
