Title: Bread Company President with Subway Advertisements
Description: An older man is standing in front of three subway advertisements for Levy and Son's Bakery rye bread of New York City. The man is company president Samuel Rubin, who is wearing a knee-length coat over a suit. A sign behind him reads "JUNCTION BLVD." and a subway train is visible in the background. The three advertisements all say, "You don't have to be Jewish to love Levy's real Jewish Rye." The photo caption reads, "Samuel Rubin, Levy's President, with three acclaimed subway ads. They depict entertainer Godfrey Cambridge, an American Indian, and a karate master."
