Default adverts

The adverts in those publications

I had a 1912 book describing various weapons, an advert inside the front cover for a light machine gun read

"Ideal for putting down native rebellions"

Terrific!! You post a scan of that and I'll post the one for saddle soap.

Along with adds, the 'private purchase' manuals from the First World War period usually include a section at the start titled 'experiences from the front'.

This is a topic we should explore further.
