Description

Ohio Maryland & Jersey Match Co. Vintage 1940s 3 Advertising Matchbooks, Unused Fascinating Fun Facts: • These matchbooks were early examples of self-promotion for the match companies themselves, showcasing layout, fonts, and tone designed to lure business clients. • “Result Producing Advertising” is a clever nod to mid-century marketing lingo — a term you’d find in Mad Men-era copywriting. • “Thank You Call Again” was a catchphrase used in many post-war service industries, often seen on receipts and diner napkins — this matchbook carried that retail charm in your pocket. • All three feature muted typographic covers and wartime-era stock, common in commercial printing during the 1940s–50s due to paper rationing.
