Business: Tom Thumb from Tennessee
(2 of 2)
Large scale advertising (THAR'S GOLD IN THEM THAR HILLS, STRANGER—MILLIONS WILL PLAY) serves both to attract buyers and players. The eloquent Tom Thumb booklet explains: "Passersby see the course, they see people putting—they stop—they lean on the fence surrounding the course—they watch the ball as it travels toward the cup—they scream—they laugh . . . they are fascinated—they want to play—they do play . . . they laugh—they scream—they groan—at last they are playing golf."
