    Vintage Eline's Vest Pocket Dictionary
    Pocket-sized softcover, 2.75" x 5.5", 196 pages, including advertising front and rear pages, two color illustrations, one sepia-toned.
    This little dictionary was offered as an advertising premium by the Joseph Schlitz Brewing Company starting in 1922.  During Prohibition, the company was forced to suspend its brewing operations, and founded Eline's Chocolate as a substitute business venture.  The Milwaukee chocolate company continued until Prohibition was ended in the 1930s.  This copy was of the first edition, printed in December, 1922 (as noted on Table of Contents page).  A slightly different version, with updated advertising illustrations, was issued the following year.
