CHICAGO-That marble table operators
appreciate the thoroughness with which
the United Manufacturing Co. refurbishes
old games and returns them to operators
sparkling as new money·makers is plainly
evident when one visits the United fa ctory
and sees the heavy shipments of old games
arriving and new games going out to all
parts of the country.
To follow a game through the United
plant is like watching a magician proceed
with one of his best demonstrations. Little
by little the old game fades away and in
its place appears one with its face lifted,
its broken parts repaired, its outside ap·
pearance altered and improved by new paint
and decals, and what's more-a worn out
playing idea replaced by a new and differ·
ent one that will win new customers im·

NEW YORK- Picture post cards have
always been fast sellers in retail stores.
However, something really new in this field
is being offered by D. Robbins & Co., in
"Slam the Axis" post cards. The well
known artist, Joe Gross, has created a se·
ries of six clever drawings, all of a humor·
ous nature, which are being printed in
standard post card size. The card will re-
tail at 6 for lOco
The cards should play an important part
in psychological warfare, as each subject
"slams the Axis" and helps drive home the
fact that only unconditional surrender will
satisfy the United Nations. The cards are
packed six different subjects in a self-mail-
ing envelope and 50 envelopes in an at-
tractive counter display box.
D. Robbins states that advance orders
placed by operators, jobbers and distribu-
tors indicates that the sale of the cards
will be tremendous.
