Retro ads of highly dubious origins
Was doing some research on retro ads today and found some pretty wtf gems (that may or may not be real)!
Above: Santa Smokes Luckies – “Luckies are easy on my throat“.
There are no finer tobaccos than those used in Luckies, and Luckies’ exclusive process is your throat protection against irritation… against cough
Cocaine Toothache Drops – Instantaneous Cure!
(I like that they put children on the ad too.)
Schlite – “Don’t worry darling, you didn’t burn the beer!”
Van Camp’s creepy Pork & Beans. (For satanic children only)
More satanic children
Sanitised Tape Worms - Eat! Eat! Eat! And always stay thin! Fat Banished!
Pitney-Bowes Postage Meter – Is it always illegal to kill a woman?
British Lard Marketing Board – They’re young… They’re in love… They eat LARD
Panasonic – Introducing the Flip’N Style hair dryer. Even if you can’t use it it’s fun to have.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA WTF LA!!
Viagra – Just a minute lady, want a big surprise?
Great vintage ads, especially for Pitney Bowes, I mean at first it doesn’t hit you but for a while as you stare at it, it slowly starts to penetrate you and you giggle with laughs. Well for now I can only giggle since am at work, but I would have wished to burst out laughing and hit the floor as I scrolled down these ads.
i use a Revlon RV408 hair dryer for myself and i like it better than Conair-~-
