Tiffany and Company[edit]
Transcript[edit]Jewelry isn't made of Pulp paper and printers ink or is it? I'll be right back. Some titles and names have come to be a part of our language, able to describe a current event, a happening, a place, or a thing. The name of one jeweler in America is one such you'd have to be way back in the hinterlands to find someone who wouldn't recognize the name Tiffany and immediately connected with precious stones and fine jewelry. It's often used in conversation to denote class or prestige. For example someone wanting to describe the high quality of a thing or place refers to it as the Tiffany of its kind. Perhaps that's why Tiffany and company of New York caused something of a nationwide ripple the other day. Now they didn't suddenly offer free diamonds or announce that they were going into the hardware business. They just published a newspaper advertisement. It didn't mention jewelry but in the days since it appeared it has been mentioned in editorials, been printed by other businesses, quoted in pamphlets and for all I know maybe even printed in the Congressional Record. I sincerely hope so, because that above all is where it should be read and heeded. Just on the chance that some of you might have missed in spite of all the stir it caused, I thought I'd read it to you, as sort of a public service. So here it is, an advertisement by Tiffany & Company: Is inflation the real problem? No it is not. Inflation is simply the inevitable final result of our follies. What then are the real causes of this national calamity? Here they are:
End of advertisement. Printer's ink on pulp paper but priceless pearls if we'll take them to heart. Eight Tiffany jewels for free in a Tiffany of an ad. This is Ronald Reagan. Thanks for listening. |
