Summary: Advertisement for Hiram Walker's Gin featuring an illustration by artist Vladimir Bobri.  The illustration depicts a group of farmers in pre-war Italy.  The men bring baskets of plants to a brightly painted wooden wagon festooned with red and green ribbons and drawn by a team of oxen.  One man sits in the wagon bed playing a mandolin.  The copy admits that Hiram Walker uses ingredients from former Axis countries, but that they were imported prior to the war and preserved until the war's end.
