Disclaimer!!!

Warning: Some of the actual advertisements depicted on this blog are highly offensive to some. Some ads are blatantly racists, chauvinistic, cruel, and very insensitive by contemporary standards. This is not to exploit the shock value of these advertisements, but rather to demonstrate the mainstream way of thinking of a time gone by, and how we’ve either evolved as a society…or, remained somewhat on the same plain. You’ve been warned!

Welcome to Madvertisements!

In the spirit (and in honor) of the hit television show Mad Men, this blog examines actual print ads from the past that in a weird and twisted way depict the mind-set and lifestyles of people from that era. This fotoblog is meant for humorous (and somewhat educational) purposes only! I do not claim to hold any copyrights to these advertisements. They are only posted for you to marvel at what those executives on Madison Avenue saw fit to print in magazines and newspapers back then. Enjoy!!!
