Chase & Sanborn 1930s Iced Tea Ad Blotter Tennis Scene 3.5 x 6

This 1930s advertising blotter promotes Chase & Sanborn Seal Brand Iced Tea, pairing branded refreshment imagery with a contemporary tennis court scene during the interwar period.

During this era, American food and beverage companies increasingly used colorful illustrated blotters to reinforce brand identity through everyday ephemera. Tennis imagery conveyed leisure, health, and modern middle-class recreation, aligning iced tea with fashionable outdoor activity and seasonal refreshment rather than purely domestic consumption.

The blotter features a stylized tennis match in progress, with a player mid-swing beside a bench and net, set against a landscaped backdrop. At right, a tall glass of iced tea with lemon garnish is prominently displayed alongside a Seal Brand Tea tin, while printed slogans read “Chase & Sanborn Seal Brand Tea Iced” and “Stimulating and Refreshing.” The composition combines sport, product, and typography in a unified layout characteristic of 1930s commercial illustration.
