Westem Cigarette Operators B WAR BARGAIN
'\
We have just a few more 1942 NATIONAL CIGARETTE MACHINES
for immediate delivery from our Los Angeles stock to established oper-
ators only. We cannot accept any business from new accounts.
Our St. Louis facto ry has discontinued the manufacture of machines
and thrown its entire facilities over to the war effort.
However, fo r. the duration of the war we will continue giving service
on all parts a nd repairs for NATIONAL machines. We have just added
a large parts department with complete stocks, and we hope to be able
to take care of all emergency repairs until the war is over.
