# Judge Magazine Advertising Contest Page This is primarily an **advertising contest entry form** rather than editorial satire. The contest invites readers to guess which national advertisement inspired the magazine's artist to create the drawing below—the prize being 10 weeks of free Judge magazine subscriptions. The central image shows a stylized figure holding a Judge magazine cover featuring "How to Make 'Em Stop"—likely referencing an advertisement about controlling or stopping something, though the specific ad referenced is unclear from this reproduction. The form instructs contestants to submit their guess with a one-dollar entry fee. An example answer fills in "Packard Automobile" as the week's advertisement. This was a common early 20th-century magazine promotion mixing reader engagement with revenue generation.
