Regular Trailer The regular trailer on “How to Murder Your Wife” is so good that it plays like an attraction in itself! And what makes it great is the narration—high comedy by Jack Lemmon himself! Delivered in the Jack Lemmon manner! Put this one to work as soon as you can—to amuse your current audiences and to whet their appetites for the great comedy you have in store for them! Available now from National Screen Service Title A Natural For Merchants Tieups! Title gives you an excellent opportunity for an unusual cooperation with a department store, electrical goods outlet or any other business dealing in household labor-saving devices! It works this way: Banner across a full-page ad or newspaper-size flyer — or across a giant window display — can read “HOW TO MURDER YOUR WIFE!” Copy continues: MAKE HER DO THE WASHING AND IRONING BY HAND instead of giving her a new Nemo wash-dryiron combination! MAKE HER COOK AND BAKE OVER A HOT, DANGEROUS STOVE instead of the new Vulcan electric range-oven! MAKE HER USE A BROOM AND MOP instead of one of the new Wizard Hi-Speed dirt-grabbing Proover Vacuums! MAKE HER WASH THE DISHES, without a Dreamo Dishwasher! MAKE HER SHOP EVERY DAY instead of providing her with a 15 sq. ft. Freezer, her own home supermarket! MAKE HER SWEAT IT OUT IN SUMMER, FREEZE IN WINTER instead of enjoying life with the new Acme Home Heater-Air Conditioning combination! You may be able to get rid of the kids this way, too! And don’t forget — the same thought can be applied to lawn-mowers (power), snow-throwers, hedge clippers, hand electric tillers, and all the rest of the gardening gadgets now on the market which take the backache out of this chore.
