Roll Your Own Scrappy

Scrappy ad

Another early Scrappy ad from The Film Daily — this one’s from the issue of August 2, 1931. Yes, that’s Yippy using a meat grinder-like machine to convert dozens of “real” boys into Scrappy. Who has four fingers and a thumb on each hand, and appears to be wearing a dress.

As with the first ad, I doubt that the Mintz operation had anything to do with this.
