Realizing that average parents
take
a great deal of pride, in having their
child earn something useful for
legitimate services rendered, the Ward
Shoe Repair Shop 5824 Pasadena avenue,
had adopted a unique method to
encourage the children to work during
their spare hours and at the same time
help him to advertise his business.
Ward gave away one National official playground ball for a specified
amount of shoe repair work brought to
him. Everyone can earn one of these
balls as one coupon is given with every
25 cents worth of business that is
brought to this shop, and 30 coupons
earns- one of these $1.75 playground
balls. The coupons were good until
October 15, 1927. However, by
September, Marion's Shoe Kraft took
over the shoe repair shop at 5824
Pasadena avenue, and
continued the National Official
Play-Balls promotion. The same
playground ball promotion was
held at all Shoe Service Shops in
California.
