Abstract:
Papers of an advertising executive who was president of the firm Reincke, Meyer, and Finn. The collection includes material on two important clients--the American Chain and Cable Co. and the Western Association of Railway Executives. There is also documentation on two early accounts--the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad, on which Meyer worked for the J. Walter Thompson Co. in 1916, and Kimberly-Clark for which he served as account manager while with the Charles F.W. Nichols Co., 1920-1923. Included are correspondence and memoranda, proposals, reports on activities, and samples of advertising, some of which (including the first Kotex ads) have been annotated to demonstrate campaign development.
