    This is a 1950 full page black & white advertisement for "Martha Ann"
    Old-Fashioned Christmas Fruitcakes and Delicacies which were made by Grace A. Rush, Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio. ** - Grace A. Rush baked fruitcakes in her home in Cincinnati as gifts. About 1916, her sister gave a shopkeeper in New York City a sample. The shopkeeper ordered some cakes, and the business was begun. The company expanded its product line to include dates, ginger, nuts, sauces, puddings, and other delicacies, which were sold in fashionable stores including Pogue's in Cincinnati and Bloomingdale's in New York. The company built a factory in 1937 and in 1974 Grace A. Rush, Inc. was acquired by Millelacs N.P. Company of Madison, Wis.
