Advertising: Shredded Wheat (United States, 1902)
Figure 1.--Here we see an advertisement for shreded wheat. Presumably it is a Nabisco ad, but we are not positive about that. We do not know in what magazine it appeared, but we do know it appeared in 1902. We are not sure what the boy is wearing, but we think it may be an underwaist. The idea may be that it is the morning before breakfast and he is not yet fully dressed. Mother seems to be explaining the nutritional value of shredded wheat.
