General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Overall, a really good article that I enjoyed reading. Nice work, Captain Assassin! Per a QPQ check, however, it looks like the nominator needs to provide a QPQ, which has not been done yet. I have a slight preference for ALT1 as the hook, but the main hook is good, too. Once QPQ is done, I'll be happy to pass this nomination. Once again, nice work!

@Michael Barera: Side comment: Does ALT1 sound a bit off grammatically? Specifically "entered in to advertising" --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 18:05, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Michael Barera: Thanks for your comment. I will provide a QPQ done asap. --Captain Assassin! «TCG» 07:09, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@MrLinkinPark333: Sorry to be slow in replying. Something like "entered the advertising business" or "began a career in advertising" might be a more natural alternative to "entered in to advertising", perhaps. Michael Barera (talk) 04:58, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Michael Barera: No worries! I thought I should mention it as a drive-by comment once I read it to prevent any errors. But, since you're the reviewer, you have the last say :) --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 17:25, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
