So you'd think. But, then in America Grit has a connotation of courage and determination, so it might have been related to that, too.

My favourite ads were the ones for La Salle Extension University, which appeared on the back page of early 70s Marvel comics.



And this spoof ad from Viz

The guy in the second La Salle ad above always reminded me of my Uncle Alan.

I'm not sure why I mentioned that, really...
