A great Ad from GGK. Nowadays not quite politically correct: a little kid flogging booze, but this was 1966 — hey, peace, man. Anyway, this is excellent copywriting and the idea for the ad itself is quite funny — the Söhnlein company gives away a free bottle of its sparkling wine to families with 6 daughters, but without a son (Söhnlein). I just love it; advertising was still fun in 1966. 6:04:16 PM   Liebe GGK, Old Ads | |

Velvets. Lazy as I am, I'll just copy and paste Jim's entry here: Do you people have a curfew or anything like that? Does it matter what time you go home tonight? Do you have school tomorrow?... 'Cause we could do either one long set or we could do two sets, you know, which ever makes it easier for you.... One long one?... Okay, then this is going to go on for a while. So we should get used to each other. Obsessional on The Velvet Underground, album by album. Via Irregular Orbit. 7:00:21 AM   Cult | |
