Vintage Ad: Mom, Light up Another Marlboro!
If there is one thing true about life, it’s this: times change. Nowadays we use babies in ads to detour moms from smoking. In the good ol’ days we used babies to encourage motherly smoking. Check out this vintage Marlboro cigarette ad from the 50′s.
I love the pre-scolding context, which basically is saying: “Hey, mom, need a light? Cause you look like you’re about to snap.”
Ad text: “Before you scold me, Mom…maybe you better light up.” Yes, you need never feel over-smoked — that’s the Miracle of Marlboro!

Vintage Ad: Vans Breakers from the 80′s
The best thing about this vintage Vans breakdancing ad from the 80′s is the first generation iPod the guy on the right is carrying. And these breakers were so hip that they used their mom’s pilates mat to dance on. I also dig the well placed yellow fire hydrant and weeds to give it that real world inner-city look.
Love it!
Vintage Ad: Stacked
I’m convinced Thermodor was talking about their appliances in this ad and any other connotation was purely coincidental.
Right.
Microwave Oven. How Food Server. Self-Cleaning Oven. Busty Wardrobe Malfunction.
