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.

George Kaplan Greatcoat

Playboy Nov. 1968
There are words to describe a man who wears a large-print plaid fur greatcoat.  Bold.  Progressive.  Go-getter.  But then again, the words blind, tacky, and vomit also apply.
