Gisholt Commercial Art
Graphic design of a termite with a boring tool for its nose and a bottle jutting out of its head. The text reads: "The Turret Termite, It usually bites worker around pay day. Victim has great thirst and stays home for a day. Dizzy spells often reported. Best cure known is zest for an allied victory plus a personal high production record." Visual and textual references to the turret suggest its association to Gisholt Machine Company. |
