From a 1930s New Yorker comes this advertisement for liverwurst hors d’oeuvres. Mmm, sounds like a tasty Depression-era finger food. The ad is pretty snazzy though.
Stahl-Meyer was Brooklyn’s biggest manufacturer of ready-to-eat meat products, according to a 1965 New York Times article. Even cooler: Their hot dogs were sold at Ebbets Field.

I have it; it’s in an old issue of The New Yorker. Do you want to email me about it? Ephemeralnewyork at gmail dot com.
