Slightly disturbing retro ads

Posted by gem, 15th March 2010

Flicking through a Womans Weekly from the 60's I found myself either in fits of laughter, or a screwed up 'disturbed' face over some of the old advertisements....So I did a wee search and found some real funny ones.

Be warned, I included some creepy ones just for shock value (especially the pig one!, that is nuts, they made him look so happy), If I had a sight called prettycreepythings, that would be my home page image.

 Read carefully, it's not what you think. This would be perfect for those kids that suck their thumbs constantly.

 Lard! It makes you happy!, not fat.

 Smoking keeps you thin, and helps with irritatiion! but also slowly rots your insides and potentially kills you, funny that they left the last part out. I suppose that would jeapordise sales.

   

 

Forget breast feeding, start them young, on Cola!

This could save you getting a dissapointing present for Christmas. This would have worked a treat for my dad on my mums 21st birthday, when he bought her a VACUUM CLEANER! oh owwww, mind you all the items on that list are some sort of kitchen appliance.

Here is the creepy ad, I warned you in the beginning, so you can only blame yourself for scrolling down (smiley face)

Not official translation, but basically says that 'eating this Sausage from the Prodigal Pig' (Cochon Produgue) won't make you tired and that it is 'food, absolute'. Interesting.
