The Napkin That Acts Like A Sponge
The Napkin That Acts Like A Sponge
The following advertisement appeared in the Arizona Republic on Sunday April 2nd 1967 on page 124. It reads:

The Napkin That Acts Like A Sponge: The American Can Co. has a new product in the Metropolitan Phoenix market that has some rather unusual thoughts about itself. It thinks it's a sponge. The product is "all new - all thru" Northern Napkins. It's reported by local Northern manager George Gilroy to soak up mealtime spills and dribbles - just like a sponge. Northern extends a special introductory offer to Valley shoppers this week through ads in the Republic and Gazette.
