We never had a chance

This ad came out of a 1965 McCall's magazine.  Parents back then believed this shit, after all it was in McCall's!  It's no wonder that diabetes and heart disease are at record levels in the USA today.

I'd buy that for a dollar

An ad from the May 1901 edition of Harper's Monthly Magazine:

That's quite the bargain if you ask me.

Oh 1980's Esprit girl, where were you when I was single?

I liked Paris, blues, New Wave, and I was fluent in counting too.

Who's Socko?

Socko is a syphilitic ex clown who delivers the films to your house and if he likes the look of your place, then he stays and watches movies with you.

They're quite the pair

It looks to me like the ballerina holding onto the constipated looking guy is about to poop in her leotard. 1960's advertising fail.

Please welcome...

...two new sponsors to the blog!

The first new sponsor is Workers United for Radiation Free Produce who remind you to: And our second new sponsor is Shelf Shop. Located out on Route 14 just past the George W. Bush Home for the Criminally Insane, Shelf Shop now sells more than just shelving systems. Lazlo, Minnie, Gert, and the gang now also sell a full line of protective undergarmentsand braces, supports, and trusses.
They'd also like to remind you that even though Lazlo Jr was never actually convicted of anything, he is no longer doing any deliveries near elementary schools and karaoke bars.
********
As always, please do your best to patronize our sponsors.

It was a regular Sohpie's choice when it came to colognes in the late '60's

You could either smell like a bull fight
orlike cigarettes, stale beer, and piss.
