1920, WILL YOU JOIN MR. EDISON IN AN EXPERIMENT?

When we came across this ad from 1920 in our vintage magazine collection--Will you join Mr. Edison (as in Thomas) in an experiment--we just had to share. As a friend put it: Update the language a bit and it could easily pass for the sort of psych-babble article that appeared all too frequently in "pop" social science magazines in the 70s.

Yep! Click on the photos. If nothing else, it's a very entertaining read.
