Morrison-related newspaper clip — halftone product grouping and columns, 13 Dec 1914 Express-News page 44

This Sunday, 13 December 1914 San Antonio Express-News clip from page 44 carries the Newspapers.com subject line “1914 Morrison Coffee.” The saved raster is a tall halftone-heavy block (embedded JPEG from the export); automated OCR did not return usable body text, so we publish the facsimile first and treat column copy as a manual transcription task.

Visually, the art reads as a packed display of cans, sacks, and cartons consistent with early Morrison San Antonio–made retail lines (including Wesco-style round tins and Misa-style cartouche lettering in the grouping). Use the scan for pack silhouette research alongside the Morrison acquisition notices until a verbatim transcription is keyed.
