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.

Playboy Nov. 1968
I didn't realize until I saw this ad that Cologne actually comes from Cologne.  Obvious, really.

4711 Cologne

Playboy Sept. 1964
     Now, I've not heard of 4711 cologne, but a quick google search revealed that it's still made and sold.  It's an impressive thing to have successfully sold a formula for 172 years (now 222 years).
