1928 Ad Strongfort Institute Lionel Newark New Jersey Exercise Fitness SAI

This is an original 1928 black and white print ad for the Strongfort Institute of Newark, New Jersey. The institute claimed to build skinny, sickly men into muscular and physical people. The caption writes, "You don't have to have a diagnosis to prove you are a weakling-- you know you're weak! You don't have to by X-rayed to prove you're lacking in vitality, stamina and pep-- you feel it all over-- you know you lack these things. And usually you know what is responsible for your weakness; and your friends-- more than you imagine-- see that you are not the man you ought to be."
