It's 1908 and here are two advertisements from Chatterbox, a weekly magazine for children.... Interesting to see what was advertised and also note the price of a Swan fountain pen. Half a guinea was a considerable sum of money then!

Lots of pushy advertising there. Not much has changed.

You're right Cathy. Even as early as 1908, kids were seen as a market.
