1950's era Odorono deodorant advertisement

"Odorono cream deodorant"

Don't you just love the name?

Odor - Oh no!!!

Love the Guy in the Green Shirt!

I love this old-time ad for Spry "Triple Creamed" shortening.
Especially the guy in green at the top.
Reaching his teeny tiny plate towards
that GREAT BIG CAKE.

Advertisement, old magazine

All I can think is ... I HATE these styles. The lady on the left looks like a square box, while the poor woman on the right is cinched in so tight it's a wonder her hips aren't exploding!

sigh, Blue Jeans for me, baby!

"All-In-One"

I'm not sure why, but this ad just cracked me up! The things we women have gone through for the sake of "beauty" and being slender.

And the built-in torpedo bra!!!

Must have been invented by a man!

Snicker, snort.

Lustre-Creme Shampoo

My mom picked this ad out from my found box of clippings.
It was a nostalgic moment.
You see, she used Lustre-Creme Shampoo ... it was something her mom bought for her. She used it from the time she was a child all through her teenaged years.

Maybe that's why she still has such beautiful hair???

1960 Magazine Ad - Post Graduate School of Nursing

If I had known it would be this easy ...
Just 10 weeks to learn practical nursing - at home!

Princess Phone

Wouldn't you love to have one of these darling rotary-dial princess phones in your house? Maybe you too could waltz around in an evening gown carrying a magic wand!!! Of course if I had a magic wand I wouldn't be using it to pick my telephone color ... I'd be waving it at this mountain of laundry I have to do today .........
