  • Columbus Drawing Book for the Kiddies

    Columbus Drawing Book for the Kiddies

    Visual Materials

    One drawing book entitled Columbus Drawing Book for the Kiddies, published by Capital City Dairy Co., Columbus, Ohio, ca. 1917. The front cover shows a girl sitting at a table, drawing in a book with crayons; below the image is the subtext "Color with crayons, Win a Prize, See Inside." On the back cover is an image of four children carrying a box of Columbus Oleomargarine on two poles, as if it were on a sedan chair; above the image is printed "Look for this display in your grocer's store." A promotional piece for Columbus Oleomargarine, the booklet describes on the front inside cover and first page how to enter the contest (full instructions are given on pp. 10 & 11). The last page and back cover have recipes "in which Margarine has been Thoroughly Tested." There are 12 images in the book--six in color, six in outline. The outlined images were to be filled in using the complementary color image to its side as a guide. Each image illustrates a rhyming jingle also on the page, which makes reference to Columbus margarine. None of the images have been filled in. On the back cover, stamped in ink below "for sale by," is "Hertzler Bros. & Co., General Merchandise, Elizabethtown, Pa." and in the upper left-hand corner, in pencil, "98-90."
