An Extraordinarily Successful 19th Century Sales Pitch

________________________________________________________________________________________________

NOW NOW NOW
is the time to repent.

Tomorrow
will be too late.

Today is bargain day in salvation.
Tomorrow the price goes up.

It's yours for the asking
but if you refuse it now
the price will rocket up.

Come in on the ground floor
and get your dividends
from the first day.

This offer may be withdrawn
at any moment.

It's your big chance.

Gilbert Seldes
