Money chain letter. Nelson Robards. Send $1, 3 names. "Do it, it really does work." US, 1978.

WOULD YOU TRADE $1.00 FOR $125,000?

Before you say "BULL" study this letter very carefully-it could easily be your "PASS-PORT TO LEISURE" - let FINANCIAL SUCCESS ADOPT YOU TODAY.

I have run one of these promotional letters 5 times in the past year. The first time I received $75,000 in cash, and almost $90,000 each of the other 4 times. As a legitimate money maker, continued by you, it could bring everyone who participates up to $125,000 in business capital. Bear in mind, this is not a chain letter, for each of us also hopes to generate business through this unique vehicle. This is a means whereby business people such as ourselves may, with an investment of only $1.00 receive all the working capital we require without the necessity of applying for and will receive up to $125,000 in cash from other business minded Americans like yourself.

This promotional letter was initiated by Nelson Robbards of Boston, Mass. for the purpose of accumulating funds for firms engaged in mail order business. I have adapted it to help all kinds of firms and individuals who wish to get their start. Your participation fee is only $1.00 cash, ridiculous considering what you stand to gain. In order to receive the full amount of $125,000 in working capital, you must not break the sequence.

Immediately send your $1.00 to the person or firm in the number 1 position shown below. Now, omit the name in the #1 position and put your name and address in the #3 position. Once the three names and addresses are positioned, yours being #3, either photocopy this letter 50 times, or take it to a quick print shop and have them run 50 copies for you. Upon securing 50 copies of this letter, with the revised address list, mail them to various businesses or individuals who advertise in magazines, preferably those doing business by mail or to those who advertise under "Business Opportunities" headings. Prompt replies are important and these people may be relied upon to follow through. Make sure your copies are quite clear, as they will be used by others to copy from. Mail them within 7 days from the time you receive this letter.

As others follow through, your name will start moving up the list, and when it is in the #1 position, it will be your turn to start receiving the cash from the $125,000 individuals and firms like yourself who are participating in this consolidated program. Don't you be the one to break the sequence. If you do, it will be the same as throwing $125,000 down the drain as well as foreclosing the possibility for those depending on you to follow through. We urge you not to break the sequence and the faith with those of us who have followed through to this point. We guarantee everything we say, provided YOU do not break the sequence. This really works and will continue to work, no matter how often used. TRY IT. . . YOU'LL SEE...

"THE CATCH IS IN THE PLEDGE"

AFTER THE FIRST $1,000 PROFIT WE ARE ASKED TO PLEDGE 20% OF FURTHER PROFITS FROM THIS EFFORT TO "JERRY AND THE KIDS" OR YOUR FAVORITE CHARITY. THIS 20% FROM EACH OF US COULD EXCEED THE AMOUNT RAISED BY TELETHONS, ETC.

"DO IT. . . . IT REALLY DOES WORK"

If you don't have a typewriter, you may block out the top name and neatly print your name and address in the #3 position. Be sure to send $1.00 to #1 before you block it out.
