Adventures in Comic-Boxing: Merry (and Tootsie) Christmas - 1954!


What did Christmas look like in 1954?  

 Well, according to the good folks at Tootsie Roll and Tootsie Pops - as seen in THE ADVENTURES OF BOB HOPE # 31 (DC Comics, Cover Date: February/March, 1955), it was kinda like this!

Such a wonderful example of the type of advertising you just don't see anymore!  

Simple, effective, and very nicely designed!

    Cute! Christmas ads like this one would make good Christmas cards for comics and pop-culture fans.

    Yeah! Ya gotta wonder why the Tootsie Roll folks - and other product providers with nice Christmas or Holiday retro ads like this - don't market 'em!
