Images of America has the picture of the factory- illustrated, and the ad that says why at the top- is the ad giving away the factory illustration- 1896-97 IIRC is when the ad was running, I’m pretty sure we have all but one of those ads
Thanks for posting |

Years ago I took pictures of my friend original Levi giveaway, I forget, what year 1915? This folds into a pair of jeans, I believe it was given away at a world's fair... |

Fantastic illustrations on the Koverls ads, especially the ones on the boys and men. Something about that airy, breezy style of illustration from the 1910-20s, they really knew how to capture wide open spaces with large clouds floating in the sky on a lazy day. I had a book as a kid, that was illustrated in that time period, about going to the beach and it was similar.
The bottom left Levi’s ad in the last Puc is one of my faves; someone else on IG also posted an original. Edited by Iron Horse - 16 May 2020 at 3:26pm |

I really enjoy both of those too- especially that full indigo outfit, I found a small catalog (missing the front cover) Can’t find any date, but I’m thinking maybe late teens....some cool stuff, I’ll post it later. |
