This is an original 1937 black and white print ad for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. The ad suggests that to enjoy the sunset years, one must retain good mental habits, get enough sleep and rest, eat less as one grows older, and exercise daily, because, "without exercise, the muscles become flabby". The ad also suggests, "When recreation stops, old age begins".
