Bob Feller is superimposed with
his facsimile autograph on this Wheaties advertisement featured on
the back cover of the August 21, 1948
issue of the Saturday Evening
Post. Feller, who states in a similar
1947 Newspaper ad, that he's been
eating Wheaties for breakfast since
1933, endorsed Wheaties for many years.
Even during the war years, serving in
the Navy from 1942-1944, he endorsed
Wheaties in uniform.
The focus in this 1948 Wheaties advertisement is eating Wheaties, his
personal and family life. Also featured
are his wife Virginia, and year old son
"Little Feller" Marty. The 1947
Newspaper ad below, is pretty much the
same theme, but "It's a Boy!" Marty is
a new born. Another 1948 newspaper ad
feature the another image of the
"Strikeout King."
In the second pain from the top left (in the ad above) Bob Feller is
reading the book
"How To Pitch" by Bob
Feller (pictured below left) In
the book, Bob Feller tells you all his
pitching secrets, and explains minutely
how to throw every pitch in his
arsenal... fast ball, slider, curve
ball, knuckle-ball, and change of pace.
Fully illustrated with instruction
diagrams and action shots.
