What you'll find here:

This blog is a collection of vintage advertisements, posted Monday through Friday. All ads are scans from magazines in my collection (or those of my friends), so I claim no copyright over them. Remember, these ads are from bygone eras: don't get upset if you see something you don't like, nor excited if you see something you do.

If you particularly like an ad and want a hi-res copy for yourself, email or message me and I can send you one.

Broomsticks Slacks

Playboy Sept. 1964
     OH NO!  That woman is kneeling on that tiny man's shoulder!  Really though, you'd think they could have tried a little harder to edit the man into a more believable position, instead of obviously in the foreground of this picture.   Regardless, I thought this was an interesting ad since it appears to be advertising both the pants and the Mustang.
    Ad text:
    Could It be his broomsticks? (or the Ford Mustang)
What's the difference. We're sure he's got it made with that kind of look that Broomsticks slim-ease slacks give him.  These great Glen Oaks tailored slacks say at one glance that you're in... in with that slimmer, taller appeal.  The fit is fabulous, the detailing delightful, the tailoring terrific. Crafted with patience in a crease-holding, wrinkle resisting blend of wash and wear 55% Acrilan Acrylic, 38% Rayon and 7% Acetate. Styled with frontier pockets and extension waistband. In an array of newest tones and shades. At stores everywhere. About $8.00.
