Description
Fisk Tire Company print ad depicting a older man sleeping in a chair in his living room. He is wearing a house coat over a white sort and dark grey pants. On his head are headphones that are connected to a radio that sits on a small round table also with a clock, a lamp, an ashtray and a small storage chest. The time on the clock reads 1:12, possibly a.m. In the background is a shelf with books, a figure in the shape of a elephant and a portrait of a man in a hat. The man is slouched, as if sleeping, and at the end of his extended arm is an open tabloid magazine showing a Fisk Tire Ad with the logo "Time to Retire. Get a Fisk."
