Actually it’s Tuna Time! And if you act now (and send in $1.50 with 2 can labels), you can get, not 1, but 4 beautiful salad forks from Holland! Source: Chatelaine, July 1963
Snap out of it!
Reposted from Coldwell Banker Bain’s Fences & Flowers blog. By Roger Morris (AKA Mr. Roger) It’s spring. Did anyone tell you that yet?
