1953 Ad Pierrot Gourmand Sucette Sucker Lollipop Chain Letter Children's VEN8

This is an original 1953 two-color print ad for Pierrot-Gourmand lollipops. It had come to their attention that children were sending each other chain letters, encouraging the next addressee to send one of their lollipops to the addresses on the letter. Unbeknownst to the children, it was an genius marketing scheme.
