"Four Pillars of Freedom" and "Our Four Great Faiths" ad campaigns

The T&P began their "Our Four Great Faiths" ad campaign in October, 1952. This campaign grew out of the previous "Four Pillars of Freedom" campaign - see my Print Resources page for examples of the booklets the railroad distributed with these campaigns.

Here are examples of ads from both campaigns:
