VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement from Black & Decker features a whimsical illustration of Aesop's fable, "The Frog and the Ox." The scene depicts an ambitious frog attempting to inflate itself to match the size of an ox, ultimately meeting its demise due to overexertion. The ad cleverly parallels this tale with a message about industrial efficiency, promoting Black & Decker's portable electric tools as solutions for reducing strain in the workplace. It suggests that just as the frog should not have taken on more than it could handle, industries can avoid unnecessary burdens by using effective tools designed for specific tasks.
