And now some print ads from the 1960s and my commentary! DIALUP WARNING
Edited on Fri May-23-08 08:02 PM by JonathanChance


These look like some rather interesting bikes...



This one's for all the Frank Zappa fans out there!



Ahh, yes, Rudi Gernreich, the guy who'd later go on to design these...



:puke:

All though he wasn't all that bad, he did, after all design the topless bikini.

:bounce: :bounce:



OK, this has been bugging me all to hell ever since I bought this book of 1960s print ads. Who the Fuck is this guy? He looks strangely familiar.



OK, this bike is about the most wicked badass thing I have ever seen. I want one, and I'm 28!



Uggh, this has to be one of the most disgusting things that I have ever seen. It looks like... :puke: And "natural corn cream"? Sounds like some sort of holistic foot care product.

1. The corn cream is the best!
I love old ads!

I like to watch 50s commercials on youtube.

2. I just go to the bit about air travel in the 60s.
I feel like crying now.

Why can't we have air travel like that?
