Scope and content
Puget Sound National Bank got some free publicity in 1965 from a particular customer who just happened to be the mayor of Tacoma. Harold Tollefson was saving $10 a month with a Puget Sound National Bank Automatic Savings Account. The above billboard was careful to state (albeit in somewhat smaller letters) that Mr. Tollefson was not paid for the use of his name and the announcement was "non-political." Photograph ordered by Cole & Weber Advertising. ALBUM 14.
