misstia...holding her aloft, gnawing on her arm, and this is an ad for suits made in Canada?! Wait, WHAT?!
DuPont cellophane, 1950s

Also, that stork is creepy.

The first-person chattiness, "reach for me" intimacy... is creeping me out.

I don't get what they're fighting about or the message the company is trying to convey, but the kid standing up might want to be mindful of his groin.
I wondered if this ad might have been part of series, but I could never find any evidence of that. From what I can tell, the company ran only one ad a year for several years. This one ran in Ebony for a few years beginning in 1960, but usually as a half-page ad. The one from 1959 is unrelated to this one and is too boring to post as it just shows the front of the building, but it does feature a nice family of floating heads. Later ads were more generic "you need insurance because" type without the threat of neighborhood bullies.
Contest Entry: Emporio Armani (1991)

Jello, 1965
Nov. 9th, 2011 04:23 pmmedren.livejournal.comJust found this in a 1965 issue of Better Homes and Gardens, and given earlier posts, I just had to put it up. The eggs in particular that Jello mold will haunt my dreams, but all of it's nightmare fuel.

This isn't exactly new in vintage ad circles (it has its own shirt on zazzle.com) but as it turns out, hubby HAS one of these at school (he's a physics teacher)! He says it is long since inactive (despite their promises of millennia of radiation). He also pointed out that (a) at the time it would have been the coolest thing to actually see atomic energy and (b) it would be shooting gamma rays into your eyes from three inches away. D:
And it glows with a weird light. :D

Either that, or Prohibition had been so long the brewers had completely forgotten how to sell the stuff.
