Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
“I’m tempted…to get a postage meter!”
That’s what Mr. Beeply said as he looked
at himself in the washstand mirror.
Mr. Beeply was plastered -but with
stamps. It happened like this:
It was the last day of the month. Miss
Thuerly, the demon secretary and invoicer, was
home enjoying her annual winter bout with the
flu. So he took on the job himself`.
The night was very cold and with every
heating gadget in the office turned on full blast,
he was soon liberally bedewed with perspiration,
brow and hand.
When he got around to stamping his envelopes,
the dew and the glue got together in a
mass retaliation act. Mr. B. ended up, literally
festooned with stamps.
After getting rid of his excess postage, he had
an inspiration: “Why don`t we quit fussing
around with adhesive stamps." he said
to himself, “and get one of those little
postage meters?"
NOBODY needs to put up with
lick-and-stick mailing-now that
there's a postage meter for even
the smallest office.
With the little DM, desk model postage
meter, you dial the amount of postage wanted
for any kind of mail, press the lever-and the
stamp is printed right on the envelope. With a
dated postmark that helps to get your mail
through the postoffice faster; and with your own
small ad, too, if you want one.
The DM provides postage for parcel post on
special tape. Has a moistener for sealing
envelopes.
The meter is set by the postoffice for as much
postage as you need to buy at a time. You
always have the right stamp value on hand.
Your postage in the meter is always protected
from loss or misuse, and is automatically
accounted for, on visible registers.
Anybody can use the DM. Metered mailing
is far faster and easier, saves time and effort.
