Note: The Goodyear ad shown above is approximately a quarter the size of some of the other examples of larger job ads. It was not uncommon to find ads by companies such as Alcoa and Douglas Aircraft Corporation that occupied almost an entire column on a page. The job ad at the bottom of the left hand column shows an example of an ad for a non-war related position.
