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.

Gilbey's Vodka

Playboy Sept. 1966
     I've tried Gilbey's, and I do have to say that it's a pretty decent vodka for the price.  It's priced a step above Aristocrat and a little below Absolut, so for the money it's a good buy.  Still, I don't think I'd take it over vodkas that have actual Russian on the bottles.
