vintageadsI have to admit that those Cafiaspirina ads kinda grew on me. Now I just find them really well made ads, and proves that to be a good ad it doesn't have to be pretty. Because even though I like those ads now, their design is not one of the best XD
I wrote the original with the present Portuguese spelling, so if you notice some diference with the spelling on the ad, that's why =)
This ad was harder to translate than the other Cafiaspirina one I did, so forgive me for any mistakes or confusing parts!
CHEGOU A HORA!
Finalmente chegou, ruidosa e louca, a Hora do Carnaval. Passemos para as fileiras de sua Majestade!
As horas de sofrimento e aflição, as horas de ansiedade e de luta, as horas de monotonia e tristeza, todas elas cedem ao seu mágico impulso e ficam sepultadas sob a onda de alegria que aí vem com a Hora Feliz.
Deixemo-nos levar por esta prodigiosa onda multicolor. Vamos rir, vamos esquecer e, como os outros, entregar-nos à folia. Diariamente somos açoitados sem misericódia pelas vagas do mar da vida. Já que esta onda perfumada vem para acariciar-nos, deixemo-nos acariciar! E para estarmos certos de que o nosso constante inimigo, a dor física, não consiga amargar-nos esta alegria, levemos, para onde formos, um tubo da admirável CAFIASPIRINA.
"THE TIME HAS ARRIVED!
The time of Carnival has finally arrived, noisily and wildily. Let's go to your Majesty's row!
The hours of suffering, affliction, the hours of anxiety and struggle, the hours of monotony and sadness, all of them yield to Carnival's magical impulse and are burried beneath the wave of joy that comes with a Happy Hour.
Let us be carried by this vast multicolor wave. Let's laugh, let's forget and, like the other people, let's surrend ourselves to this revelry. We are daily whipped without mercy by the surges of our life's ocean. Since this perfumed wave comes to caress us, let us be caressed! And to be sure that our constant enemy, the physical pain, won't be able to bitter our happiness, let's take everywhere a tube of CAFIASPIRINA."
