Parody chain letter. Wife exchange. "...started in Reno..." "...you will receive 15,176 Gorgeous Girls."  Wife back joke.  US, 1946.

---

Here's a vacation chain letter idea, started in Reno in the hopes of bringing happiness to all tired business men.
  Unlike most chains, this one does not cost any money: simply send a copy of this letter to five male friends.
  Then bundle up your wife and send her to the fellow whose name heads the list. When your name works to the top you will receive 15,176 Gorgeous Girls. Have faith - do not break the chain! One man broke the chain and got his own wife back!!! - Butch
