1920s Wrigley’s Ad || Bride + Groom

By

I came across an original copy of this charming 1920s Wrigley’s ad (for sale here on Amazon) and I have to say, it is pretty adorable….

1920s Wrigleys Ad || Bride + Groom

Look at that beautifully dressed, round-faced, gum-loving couple! Definite style tips to be found here (groom’s look is ON POINT). Maybe not so much with the married-life tips (“we don’t mean to imply the bride’s cooking requires a digestive aid” is fun.) but I love everything else about it.

We don’t mean to imply the bride’s cooking requires a digestive aid– but WRIGLEY’S SPEARMINT affords just that taste of mint we all like after meals.

And besides– it whitens teeth–sweetens breath– aids digestion and calms the nerves.

Freshens the mouth after smoking.

TASTE the Juice of Real Mint Leaves

BE SURE IT’S WRIGLEY’S
