Back to Prosperity

January 25, 1933, Menasha Record

I like how this retailer tied the Depression, the local paper mills, and its own business all together in this ad, giving its customers some hope for a better 1933.  What better incentive to buy this product than knowing it was produced in the ol' home town, and by entities that cared about keeping its employees working?   The Menasha Dry Goods Company was located at 219 Main Street in the Tuchscherer's block, across the street from Grove's Clothiers.
