I used to eat these Chef Boy-Ar-Dee pizzas in a kit all the time.

This is cool! I never knew Chef Boy-Ar-Dee sold something like this. I'm a little concerned about the way she is using his sweater as a plate, though.

Yep, laundry pre-treater due to swing into action.
I think those kits are still being sold, though the box has changed from back then. Seems like ours was in a red box.

Re: Magazine Ads
Wow! I wonder if there are still any of the autographed ones of these around anywhere today. If not, I wonder what happened to them all. Do you have the year for this? I'm wondering how much 25¢ was at that time.

I forgot to label it, this is from the August 1913 edition of Motion Picture Story.

$6.53 in today's currency. That would be really cheap for an authentically autographed star photo. I wonder if it was just stamped rather than actually signed?
Re: Magazine Ads
I'm inclined to believe that, at this price, it would be authentically signed. If my source is correct, the average yearly wage was $1,296 in 1913, and per month that would be only $108. Divide that by 4, it would be $27 a week.
I mean, think about it, if you spent .25 on a photo, you may have to forgo 2 or 3 trips to the movies that week!!! The Horror!!

Strange lawnmower. No wonder the guy across the fence is scratching his head.
