Ripe Red Cherries and Adams California Fruit Gum -- May 28, 2014

With cherry season beginning, I thought this was appropriate.  Actress Ruth Roland was born in San Francisco.  She appeared on stage in New York, then worked for the Kalem company in New York and Los Angeles from 1909 to 1914.  She went on to appear in many early serials and produced many of her own movies.  This ad for Adams California Fruit Gum is from the September, 1919 Shadowland.
