Greasy Kid's Stuff: Humor, in a 1924 Petroleum Advertising Pamphlet

Here's a little advertising pamphlet that, more than likely, was a hit before your mother was born (if you're not sure, you might want to ask her). It was given out in December of 1924, to promote the products and services of the National Refining Company, from the Land of Cleve (Ohio).


Aside from the usual "here are the products we have to offer" pages, they cleverly included a LOT of silly verses, of the same sort one might expect to have found on Burma Shave signs along the highways, plus an offer for a FREE board game (among other highlights). 

I hope you get as big a kick out of this material as I do.
