Harold Hardhike's Rejuvenation

The booklet depicts a man grouchy with his wife, seemingly for no reason, whose mood is miraculously lifted by buying O'Sullivan's Heels. This booklet seems to be part of an advert series originating from New York City, whereby Harold Hardhike can be paid to endorse products.
