Pull this ad almost to the bottom of the page. The ad with the hands cuffed. Does anything look familiar?

Wadsworth Watch Case Co.

An ad depicting how the population envisioned a U.S. soldier: young, good-looking, and smiling in the face of danger



Bulova

Can't go wrong with a catchy tagline and an image of three hardened-looking soldiers bracing for battle.


Speidel

A subtler—and perhaps more effective—way of fusing jewelry and the military


B.A. Ballou & Co.

This is one of the coolest-looking ads I've ever come across in any publication. The provocative scene of the bombers puts jewelry aside in order to tie the business firmly to the war effort.


Kousin Jewelry Co.

My grandfather went AWOL right before he shipped out for the front to marry my grandmother. They didn't see each other for another four years. This ad reminds me of them



Bruner-Ritter, Inc.

This is one of the few propaganda jewelry ads I felt comfortable publishing here. There are several others that showcase how far government and business officials went in order to demonize the enemy and encourage support for U.S. military goals. As righteous as the cause may have been, these ads are chilling all the same.

The link in the above post is a bit off of the Carbine topic unless you are really looking. I removed the link as it has a continuing comment section attached to another site. Also the last picture Loren talks about with the cuffs is semi political and could cause negative comments. I copied and reposted the advertizing pictures for viewing. And just the advertizing comment for the last. Notice the B/R in a circle in the text of the add and also the bottom banner of the add. This is a 1942 poster showing B/R in a circle.
Thanks Loren.

What was taken away was a Bruner-Ritter ad. Its not the picture,its within the ad that the company logo was a circled B/R. It has always been questioned which came first,the circle or the square? Tends to make you think that maybe the 1st part of the contract/contracts might have used the circle B/R.
