Stacked type: Drink / Border / Blend / Coffee / It Satisfies — ask your grocer

This 29 March 1916 El Paso Herald clip is a minimal typographic ad for Border Blend Coffeeno Hoffmann-Hayman or H&H marks appear in the image. The words Drink / Border / Blend / Coffee stack in large letters, with “It Satisfies” and a small “Ask your grocer” callout. We keep the file in the newspaper series as borderlands retail context; it is not tagged as H&H product unless a chain-of-title ties Border Blend to the San Antonio roaster.
