Transcript

Kellogg's PEP, the super delicious cereal, present the adventures of Superman, faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound. Up in the sky, it's a bird. It's a plane. That's Superman.

Yes, if Superman, whose investigation of the strange accidents at Happy Land Farms, may mean trouble for Jimmy Olsen, Well, learn more about it in a moment, but right now here's Dan McCullough with a very special bulletin.

Say gang, I know I don't have to tell you what a walkie-talkie is. No, sir. You know that the United States Marines and soldiers use the walkie-talkie on beachheads, on battlefields, for commands and for getting equipment to the front lines.

I'll bet every time you see a walkie-talkie in pictures, you wish you could own one. Well, the real thing is for our servicemen, but here's what the Kellogg Company, makers of that super delicious cereal Kellogg's PEP, have for you.

A cardboard walkie-talkie that really works. You see, it's a model of the real kind soldiers use. It's regular army color, it's almost a foot high, has an earphone and a mouthpiece built right in, and comes equipped with a smaller transmitter receiver so you can speak into it and get answers up to 48 feet away.

Now just imagine, you have 48 feet of communication line. Why, that's long enough to stretch almost care across a schoolyard or down the block. Think of the games you can play with that, especially if your pal sent for them too.

Then you can have a three or four-way hookup that really works. Of course to get the best results, you must carefully follow the directions for putting the instrument together. You'll find these printed right on the envelope.
