They just don’t make ’em like they used to. Advertisements. Remember them from newspapers and magazines? Years ago they made us buy; now they just make us laugh.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve been adding a few “new” advertisements every week that either made us laugh so hard we couldn’t resist or actually wish we still saw these as we thumbed through our favorite publications. Let us know what you think.
1.) Chase & Sanborn coffee. Hope your wife is “store-testing”.
2.) Van Heusen. Who doesn’t enjoy wearing a shirt and tie…in bed…for breakfast?
3.) The Chef doesn’t cook. Great. Now you have 2 things that don’t.
4.) Camel. This guy can speed skate after smoking? I can’t breathe after getting my mail…from my car window…parked in front of my mailbox.
5.) Del Monte. I claim false advertising. She STILL needs me to help her.
6.) Iver Johnson Revolvers. Let your 4-year old daughter sleep with one TONIGHT!
7.) Friedr Bayer & Co. Heroin. No medicine cabinet is complete without it.
8.) Thorazine. As if Grandpa didn’t drool on himself enough already…
9.) Kellogg’s. Your wife not cooking, cleaning and dusting? You must not be giving her enough vitamins.
10.) Lard. They’re happy because this photo was taken 3 decades before we figured out that lard leads to heart attacks.
11.) 7UP. Babies are SUPPOSED to drink from a bottle, right?
12.) Marlboro. Depending on how bad of a kid you have, I bet you could find a way to become “over-smoked”.
13.) Tape Worms. Don’t diet…eat a tape worm. It’s easy and harmless. (Yeah, ok.)
14.) Blatz beer. Go ahead, mom. Have a beer. We can pay for the kid’s therapy later on.
15.) Golden Peacock Bleach Cream. Because a lady should never appear muddy. (?)
16.) Sugar. Down some today so you can Watsui with Mary.
17.) Chesterfield’s. Merry Christmas from Ronald Reagan.
terrific. enjoyed them all especially the Marlboro one. apart from humor, the creative guy had a lot of guts and the agency backed him.
