What a delightful review!

Dale is Bernard Shnaps, a fast-talking wheeler-dealer whose double-sided business cards are crammed with small print to cover all contingencies from "silverware and underwear" to "steamship tickets, foreign exchange, and oranges" ("Mortgages! It's a terrible printer")

When I moved to the Midwest in the early 70s, I encountered several goyim with cards like this. A decade later, I was working at the print shop that made those cards--we had a $10 for 500 special, because we printed ten different cards on a sheet. It's delightful how shamelessly people are willing to market themselves on tiny slips of paper.
