The Great Bear Drawing Book
Visual Materials
One manufacturer's advertisement/drawing book entitled The Great Bear Drawing Book, published by Great Bear Spring Co., Foulton, New York, ca. 1910?. This promotional booklet is 8 unnumbered pages in length, and contains advertising images and text, in addition to leaves of tracing paper for copying the images. It promotes Great Bear Spring bottled water. The front cover is a chromolithograph image of a white polar bear, seated at an easel painting a picture of a polar bear. A bottle of Great Bear Springs water sits prominently on a table in the foreground. On each of the 8 pages is an image, with rhyming promotional text below each image. For example, beneath the final image of a horse-drawn cart the text reads: "This is The Famous Water wagon, You've heard of it before; Just drop a line or 'phone us And you'll see it at your door." None of the images have been copied.
