Jasper County Democrat, Volume 15, Number 11, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 11 May 1912 — Garbage Can Advertising. [ARTICLE]

Garbage Can Advertising.

A representative of an advertising company has offered to present the city of Montgomery, Ala., with a large number of sanitary garbage cans if the city commission will agree to permit a certain amount of advertising on the cans. The manufacturers of a successful toilet preparation scaled a bold peak at historic Harper’s Ferry and made a signboard of an ancient promotory which would seem accessible only by airship. But it’s a 'far cry from the blue-cowled mountains of West Virginia to the garbage cans of Alabama and it is probable that they will not become purveyors of publicity—not feor the delicatessen shops anyway.
