Among the dozens of full-color examples, readers will find: a woman being spanked by her husband for not buying the right coffeethe story of a mother having to turn her child over to an orphanage because her late husband didn’t keep up his life insurance payments Aunt Jemima declaring “Happy days is here!” because of her new pancake recipedoctors promoting particular brands of cigarettesthe Michael Jackson Rainbow Brite portable record player with the copy line, “Gifts to keep children singing.” Advertising has changed over the decades—that is a major understatement. Despite the nostalgia of such shows as Mad Men, the outrageous images in Outdated Advertising show readers just how far we’ve come since then.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 254mmItem Length: 203mmItem Width: 13mmItem Weight: 567gContributor: Michael Lewis (Edited by), Stephen Spignesi (Edited by), Ben B.
