Vintage advertising

Posted on August 20, 2008 by sheila

I love stuff like this.

I particularly like the illustration to the ad for the “Lux toilet soap”. The guy in a silk dressing gown, the woman still in her pearls and furs … THAT’S what you wear when you go to wash your hands. But of course!

I just love those old drawings.

    Sheila, you didn’t miss this one did you?

    “She would be Beautiful
    if it weren’t for her Ankles”

    This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in … ever? I can’t stop laughing.

    You look beautiful tonight dear… you’ve done something with your hair… no wait… it’s your ankles!!!
