Form letters in 1920 to cut costs, says Iowa speaker
Frank Armstrong of Des Moines told the fifth annual convention of the Associated Advertising clubs of Iowa that filled in form letters will not be used in 1920 except for lists of large firms. He noted one cent mailings can equal two cent mailings for smaller merchants, farmers, and country towns, and urged a move to one cent postage for letter mats. He predicts 1920 will push for factual, efficient presentation driven by useful, economical buying appeals.
