MOAR MOR MEAT!

Been a lot of tinned meat ads lately, so here's one from my Food & WWII project.

One of my favorite quotes from my research was about tinned meat: "they spoil easily, take time to prepare, and the men [overseas] just don’t like them. These objections, valid for the Army, make no sense when cited by civilians.”

This guy seems REALLY HAPPY though! :D

"Italian Stallion" 1978 ad

[sandoz-iscariot.livejournal.com]

The trailer for The Italian Stallion, a 1978 re-release of Party at Kitty and Stud's, a softcore porn film that's famous for being Sylvester Stallone's first starring role. As the new title indicates, this was a quick cash in on Stallone's huge success with Rocky, and the ad even rips off the Rocky theme. The ad is introduced by female porn director Gail Palmer, and interestingly, it suggests that the movie was being marketed towards women.

The preview itself is surprisingly G-rated, though it's under a cut for safety's sake.
