Money chain letter. Bill Nelson. Send $1, four names, copy quota 20. US, 1975

DO YOU NEED $8,000? ? ? ? ? ?

Let Bill Nelson tell you how I have run one of these promotion letters --
four times in the past year. The First time I received $7,000 in cash
and around &7,800 the other three. It this letter is continued as it
should be, everyone profits!  Yes, and don't worry about financing or
paying money back.  After the first time, you'll see what I mean, and
next time you will be more eager and glad.  Now, let me give you the
complete story and details.

Please forward them and in about 30 days you will be $8,000 richer.

This letter will pay up to $8,000 because there are only four names
at all times.  Three moves and you are in a position to receive one
dollar from each participant.  This chain letter was initiated by
William Neham from Nashville, Tennessee, for the purpose of investment
capital.  But, now this has been expanded.  Your participation is one
dollar to the first person or firm in the Number One position below,
while omitting the name to whom you sent the dollar.  Then, move the
list of names up one place and place your name at the bottom.  Mail
a copy of this letter to 20 new prospects.

MAIL YOUR LETTERS within 48 HOURS AND DO NOT BREAK THE CHAIN.  When
your name reaches the Number One position, it will be your turn to
collect the fees. They will be sent to you by 8,000 persons like your-
self.  Please DO NOT BREAK THE CHAIN BECAUSE IT REALLY WORKS!!  In fact,
I guarantee it, provided you do not break the chain and follow the simple
rules above.  Try it and see.  You are investing ONLY, ONE DOLLAR, and
that is all you can lose.  Be sure to copy this letter completely.
Don't leave any of it out.

Send your report to Imperial Sales Company, 3096 Ivey Avenue, Knoxville,
Tennessee 37914.  Let us know when your fee was sent and how much you
received within nine days.  We have at the present time almost 100%
return to the people carrying out this letter promotion.  The majority
received $7,800.  If four names should be listed on your promotion, the
one in Number One position is omitted, after you send him your one dollar

Then, put your name and address in the Number Four position.

$8,000 is capital absolutely free!  Send letters only to people who have
secretaries or whom you personally consider "Doers." Look -- 20 times 20
times 20 equals 8,000!!!!.
