Dr. Seuss Advertising Secrets of the Deep

Any specialist dealer in business long enough will end up collecting ephemera items.  Most of the ephemera I have is promotional material related to certain authors or illustrators, usually focused on a specific publication.  Occasionally  I end up with something really coolio like this Dr. Seuss advertisement from 1935:

SECRETS OF THE DEEP or The Perfect Yachtsman by Old Captain Taylor.  Essomarine, 1935. Soft cover. Good+ condition. Essomarine (Standard Oil), 1935. 8vo, pictorial wraps, 34 pp. 

 
This is currently the king of my ephemera , even with the foxing and the tiny edge chips...
