Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Great Depression of the 1930s was a golden age for advertising, as corporate America sought to retain its customer base in the wake of the Crash of '29. For a struggling paper manufacturer in Cloquet, Minnesota, the times were all the more difficult because it had recently invested in costly new machinery. In desperation, the executives of Northwest Paper called in an ad agent from Chicago to boost sales and save the company. Together, they created an ad campaign that would be one of the longest-running and best-known in American commercial history. The name of the firm and its location in the north woods of Minnesota provided the inspiration for a series of story-ads featuring the adventures of the North West Mounted Police of Canada." "The sixteen artists who worked on the Mountie series between 1931 and 1970 were among the most famous commercial illustrators of their day. The first of these was Hal Foster, who later created the Prince Valiant comic strip. Another, the most prolific "Mountie" artist, was Arnold Friberg, who stayed with the project for thirty-three years. Friberg's Mounted Police pictures are much sought-after by collectors and are still in circulation in the form of calendars, pamphlets, and other printed materials."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis The Canadian Mounted by : Mark Leslie
Download or read book The Canadian Mounted written by Mark Leslie and published by Stark Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-11 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Prop Book That Keeps on Popping Up! Yes, the cover of this book looks a lot like the one Del Griffith (John Candy) is reading at the New York airport in the 1987 movie Planes, Trains and Automobiles. That same book also appears in 2018's Deadpool 2. It was long believed that this was a prop book. But it was a real book published in the 1980s and from a company that went out of business before the end of the decade. This re-imagined incarnation of The Canadian Mounted explores the use of this prop book and many other intriguing, insightful and entertaining behind-the-scenes details as they relate to the classic 1987 John Hughes film. Created for fans of the movie and of John Hughes, this book explores and shares stories related to the writing and making of the film, curious tales and collected trivia associated with it, including: - The incident that inspired Hughes to write the original script - Del-isms - The film's eclectic sound-track - Missing Oxford commas - Deleted scenes - Ryan Reynolds' adoration of fellow Canadian John Candy - General trivia - And more... If you love and regularly re-watch Planes, Trains and Automobiles, then this is a book you must read. Coming for Canadian Thanksgiving 2022, 35 years after the film's theatrical release.

Download or read book The Red Wall written by Jane Hall and published by GeneralStore PublishingHouse. This book was released on 2007 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1977, people have asked Jane Hall over and over what it was like to have been among the first few female members in the RCMP, and, like so many of her peers, she has avoided answering the question. How could one sentence do the question justice? Finally, after years of thoughtful contemplation, she has borrowed a phrase from the father of one of the original members of the North West Mounted Police--Sub-Inspector Francis Dickens : "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." But the reason for avoiding the answer, like the question itself, was a little more complex than simply not having the correct words. To truly tell the complete story, some of the bad as well as the good must be told; and that was why senior female members like Ms. Hall had chosen to remain silent, fearing that any abbreviated response could be misinterpreted or subverted to unfairly attack the RCMP. After all, it was the RCMP who broke new social and professional ground when it decided : "In the absence of any empirical evidence to the contrary, the assumption had to be that females would be capable of performing all the diversified duties in the Force equal to the males." The RCMP, the embodiment of the Canadian national identity, levelled the professional playing field for women, and by doing so, in this unprecedented leadership role the RCMP catapulted the women's movement forward, impacting the lives of women throughout North America--and quite possibly the world. Says Jane Hall : "It is time to break the silence; time to acknowledge our successes and our failures. Time to move forward."

Download or read book True Crime, True North written by Carolyn Strange and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lively book takes a loving look at the Canadian true crime pulps of the World War II era -- their bold, brassy covers, spicy advertisements, and stories of murder, robbery, sex, and violence. With vivid archival images of both magazine covers and ads, True Crime, True North examines the themes that characterized the genre in Canada: the unquestioned adherence to retributive justice, the unwavering faith in lawmen, and the enduring affection for Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The authors also trace pulp writers' preoccupation with jealousy and betrayal, the deadly consequences of greed, and the growing menace of "sex fiends."
