Any image two hotdog dogs are shown. The top hotdog dog sitting in a bun is straight below, a bun with a curved hot dog. The text reads. How a "growth company" grows Are straight hot dogs better than curved ones? Hint: Rayonier cellulose chemistry lowers costs Answer: They're both mighty good eating. But the straight hot dog is skinless-and won't vary a jot in taste, color or texture. That's because it's shaped in special, sanitary cellulose casings. And it's the casing (stripped off after smoking) that makes straight "dogs" lower in cost, consistent in deliciousness. What's in it for you? Chemical cellulose for sausage RAYONIER IN CORPO RATED making is only a fraction of Rayonier's growth business. But this versatile raw material can actually keep many sausage meats several cents a pound cheaper on your butcher's shelf! That's because cellulose speeds production, delivers wholesome, appetizing, fresh meats. Thus, with ever better celluloses, Rayonier assures you real value in over 500 different products ranging from miracle fibers to hot dogs. In this way and others, Rayonier grows. cellulase chemistry Executive and General Sales Offices: 161 East 42nd St., New York 17, New York

Finally found a good quote for a Contax IIa. Cosmetically and mechanically, I don’t think they come any bette today. Everything works. Tested the shutter speeds — spot on. A great surprise came with the package: the original manual and a booklet expanding on the usage.
Ausgereift, indeed. Naturally it’s leagues above the Kiev; and still a great step up from the Contax II I was able to briefly handle a few months ago.

The image is a color postcard showing a bull standing in an open pasture. The bull is centered and shown in full side view, facing left. It has a broad body, short legs, and curved horns. Its coloring appears dark brown or reddish-brown with lighter areas on the face and lower legs. The animal is standing calmly on grass dotted with many small white flowers.
The background shows a rural Texas landscape. The pasture extends into the distance with gently rolling ground. Several medium-sized trees are scattered across the field. Near the horizon, slightly right of center, there is a small farmhouse or ranch-style building with a pitched roof.
The sky is clear and bright blue, suggesting a sunny day.
In the upper left corner of the postcard, red text reads: “Here’s A Little Bull From TEXAS”, with “TEXAS” emphasized in capital letters. The overall image presents a stereotypical rural Texas scene focused on livestock and open land.
THE SLITS
The Peel Sessions 1977-1978-1981
2025 Unofficial Bootleg Compilation
Today was a long-ass day.
Time to relax with some savagery.
Really great sounding unofficial press of the 9 songs from three different Peel Session appearances by The Slits.
The first four songs from their initial appearance in September of 1977 are particularly awesome.
I’m always hesitant to pick up these “Radio Broadcast” boots, but almost all of the ones from this label that I’ve bought have sounded pretty friggin great. This one is no exception.
The image is a full-page vintage magazine advertisement for the Chrysler New Yorker automobile. A long, black four-door sedan is shown in profile, centered in the image, stopped or moving slowly through a wide city street. The pavement is wet, creating a reflective surface beneath the car.
The setting is a dense urban downtown, identified as New York City. Tall office buildings line both sides of the street, forming a canyon of glass and stone. In the distance, a prominent skyscraper with a distinctive crown rises above the surrounding buildings. A traffic signal above the car shows a red light. Blurred streaks of red and yellow lights suggest passing traffic and motion around the stationary vehicle.
The car itself is large and low, with chrome trim along the sides, prominent wheel covers, and whitewall tires. Its long body and formal roofline emphasize luxury and size.
Centered beneath the image, large capital letters read “CHRYSLER NEW YORKER.” Below this headline is a block of smaller text beginning with the line “you may well ask why it doesn’t cost more,” followed by several paragraphs describing the car’s comfort, interior features, ride quality, and value. The text emphasizes luxury, quietness, power, and practicality.
At the very bottom of the advertisement is a narrow line of additional promotional text referencing other Chrysler models.
