'Quality Food at Its Best'"

From a Heinz ad in the July 29, 1940 issue of Life:
"To Broadway's sporting and theatrical fraternity, the Brass Rail at 7th Avenue and 49th Street is known as a 'swell place to eat.'  After the show or a boxing match at the Garden, folks gather to enjoy good food in congenial surroundings.  And when ketchup or chili sauce is called for, only Heinz is considered good enough to match the high standard of the food."
