We take a short break for HUMP-DAY HUNKS!

All hail the sweaty, stubbly soldier of WWII!

Shell, 1944

Adorable, even with the pornstache and the 'bold/shy' fragrance. 

English Leather "Musk", 1983

Yeah, he's eyeing her makeup collection.  He's a 'young modern'.

Coca-Cola, 1947

Ah yes! It's important to make your artifice appear natural. Drives the men wild. Here's hoping the 'men' are also 17.

Shave off the 'stache, and that guy in the 2nd ad would look a good bit like Paul Newman.

Yeah, cause the 40's and 50's were marked by "natural" looks for women... Now where'd I put that bullet bra?

Musk dude would be better without the 'stache and with scruffy soldier's stubble instead.

The fact that the soldier is sweating heavily and cannot seem to move to swat the mosquito suggests that he is having a paroxysmal attack; since he is keeping one eye closed, he might also have conjugate gaze palsy. These are classic symptoms of malaria, but, damn, he's still sexy.

Hump day hunks. I like it! Let's see what I can dig out of my private reserves.
