Why It s The Best Defiance Starch Claim
An odd passage promotes Defiance Starch as uniquely produced and superior by a new process. It asserts one third more product for ten cents and comments on the unpredictable nature of the average girl, suggesting she may mock a suitor one day and marry him the next.
Defiance Starch Promises Value and Quality
A grocer warns that Defiance Starch is often out of stock, suggesting higher demand. The ad touts Defiance as superior to Cold Water Starch, offering more starch per ounce at the same price as 12 oz brands. Fame may be a bubble, but some see it as a football of fate.
Try One Package Defiance Starch Promise
Defiance Starch offers a one third more for the same money with no sticking to iron. Dealers report extra quantity and superior quality replacing other brands. Some say they cannot sell any other starch as Defiance becomes the preferred choice.
