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.

Zenith Stereos, Midcentury Modern

Playboy Nov. 67
Please click to see this bigger.  I'm digging on the fantastic mid-century modern style of those speakers.  Not sure how well it really disperses sound, though.

Happy New Year from HAI Karate

Playboy Nov. 1967
Funny how some themes resurface.  This ad for cologne and aftershave features a guy whose wife mercilessly assaults him with affection when she smells him.  Sounds a bit like those Axe commercials a few years back, doesn't it?
