This is a vintage black and white advertisement featuring a large water purification tank with the letters "RAF" indicating its association with the Royal Air Force. The headline reads "A VITAL NECESSITY Pure Water for the Forces. " Below this, there's an explanatory text that emphasizes the importance of pure sparkling water on active service, mentioning that it can be obtained from any pond, river or ditch without fear of waterborne diseases due to the chemical treatment which includes substances like ammonium chloride and salt. The product claims to have been tested by scientific achievement through British brains and produced with British capital. At the bottom left corner, there are two labeled containers representing ammonium chloride and salt as part of the purification process. The advertisement concludes with a note stating "Supplied in quantity to other ministries in connection For Admiralty and War Office. " The company responsible for this ad is E. C. D.
