HINTS ON NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING No. 69 — "In Name Only” (RKO) Reported generally doing good business, this has for its major attractions the three names, Lombard, Grant and Francis. The top Reading ad is a combination of pressbook and new copy and unless the rates in Reading are extremely cheap, it looks like costly advertising. Compare that Reading ad with that on the bottom, and the change to “Wife In Name Only.” This must have been meant as a hypo to business, we take it. Frankly, we don’t think that the choice of type in the large Reading ad is very good. Then again, the several lines of type underneath the name “Park” only detract from the ad itself. The other layouts on the page plug the names, with some selling copy. Convey to jour audience something about the story. The word-of-mouth will do the trick after that. September 20, 1939 QUAD.
