Often included with advertisements,
ink blotters, like trade cards, were a
good way to attract potential
customers. Because people kept them on
their desks, the advertiser’s message
would always be in front of them, and
generate way more advertising
‘impressions’ than many of the
conventional trade cards. Ink blotters
were popular in the days of fountain
pens. They are typically thicker than
youratd standard trade card as they were
used to help wipe the excess ink from
the tips of the pen.
This Dodds Sealtest Dairy Products ink
blotter features an advertisement that
reads: "Build Energy... with Fresh Milk
and Dairy Beverages. You'll enjoy
delicious Chocolate Milk. Malted Milk,
Butter Milk and Orange Drink." Under
the Dodds Sealtest logo reads: "Order
from the Dodds Man, or phone HU. 4200."
Below are three 1949 calendars for
July, August and September. The right
is a black & white picture of a little
leaguer in his baseball uniform, bat &
glove, drinking a glass of milk.
