Your Occo Service Man
| A man in an overcoat is leaning against a parked car, with a man in overalls standing next to him. A sign in the car window reads: "Your stock needs Occo Minerals for health and production." Behind the car, a woman is sitting on a horse, and a young man or boy is holding the reins of the horse. Caption reads: "Your Occo Service Man, E.A. Brechter — Beaver Dam, Wis." The postcard is addressed to Mr. M. Kledehn of Burnett, and the message reads: "Mr. Kledehn, If you have any abortion mastitis or breeding trouble in your herd, we can correct it for you. All services (are free) Phone 1168W. We also treat pigs for necro & spray them for mange. A trial will convince you. Mr. Brechter." |
