The Advertising Artwork of Dr. Seuss

I have a 1941 DuPont ad from the Saturday Evening Post (sorry, no scanner, so I can't provide an image), for Cellophane ("Your Guide To Added Value"). Half a dozen Seussian insects, on a picnic basket photo bacground, complaining about this newfangled Cellophane wrapping up the sandwiches, paper plates, straws and napkins.
"Cellophane" is a registered trademark of E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. (Inc.)
LET'S SCRAM, GUYS. THIS PICNIC IS ALL WRAPPED UP IN "CELLOPHANE"!
YESSIR -- BEFORE "CELLOPHANE" NEARLY EVERYTHING WAS NICE AND DIRTY!
