Some Old Ads That Would NOT Do So Well Today…
Some of these had me shaking my head and others just had me laughing really hard! Makes me wonder who did their advertisement design! It wasn’t that long ago either when these were quite popular ads! Funny to think how far we have come in this world, right? OR, how backward we are going…sigh. I guess one day we just might get it right, right?!? I sure hope so! Anyway, enjoy!
I mean, why the heck not??? Start ’em EARLY! The earlier the better, right? Ugh!
