A Businessman
Propositions
You cannot afford to ignore
On one hand
He bucks an unfavourable Public Opinion
A good chance of losing
Every penny
He put into the cold Metal
On the other
They can relieve him of the
Risk and Responsibility
At an impressive,
Immediate profit
Larger than he could hope to realize from The Sale.
