Vintage ad-a-plooza!

Balls on the brain

Balls!

Trippy 1970's illustrations, how I love you so

These are from some book about a kid who discovers his Hispanic heritage.

Feel young, look young

Milton Weiner illustrations

More illustrations from 'Hiroshi's Wonderful Kite'

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting

Some more photos from the 1970's kid's book Karate is for me!

German poetry book illustrations

I posted some of these before. I'm trying to clear out some of the scans I've done so I can do more. So if you've seen some of these before, sorry. Deal with it.

Treasure beyond measure

1961 William and Mary alumni magazine ads

Drive she said

How does your garden grow?

War is heck

There's no people like vintage ad people

Mike Tyson, the well dressed rapist.

RIP John John.
Remember when Cher dated her pool boy?
Remember when Ton Cruise dated his mom and Michael Douglas dated women near his own advanced age?
Poor Justine Bateman, this was the pinnacle of her career. It was all down hill after this issue of People for her. She can't get work these days so she sits around in a trailer park in Loma Linda and compulsively masturbates and eats deep fried food. Jason Bateman comes by every so often and tosses her a bone. Literally.
Did Susan Dey fall in a wood chipper? Is that how she became brain damaged?
Delta Burke, feel the fatness.
Sweet Christ, Markie Post deserved to be beaten to death with a rock for wearing that shit outfit out in public.

Illustrations from Papa Pompino

Alas, by the time I got ahold of this fine little book the slottie toy they promised that would be in the back of the book was long gone.

Jack Kirby sound effects

Travel in living color

Looks sketchy to me

People's best and worst dressed of 1987 (first in a series)

Bridgette Nielson used to be hawt before she became a caricature of herself.

Remember when we used to care about Corbin Bernsen? I had to use heavy psychoactive drugs to suppress those painful memories of those days when I did.
Um, I'm sorry but back in 1987 when Lisa Bonet had a rockin' body, she could not show enough skin to satisfy me.
Liz!
It's funny how Kirk Cameron has evolved into such an asshole and how Sarah Jessica Parker has turned into such a creep.
Three dogs on one page! It's a People magazine record!

And these ladies and gentlemen were the fashion judges and style jury for this madness:
That's right. They had a chick with a bone in her hair who wrote shit novels about assholes who lived in New York city judging other people's clothing choices. Man, if that isn't hip I don't know what is. But holy shit, how cute was that chick from Moonlighting? She was off the charts cute in those days.

Curses, foiled again!

This is why I love the internet

I picked this up for .50 cents on Friday:
And in it was a great photo spread of the 1961 sorority rush. Now I usually hate that college 'Greek' shit, especially the sorority stuff because in my experience I have found that young sorority chicks are usually the most stuck up and snooty females ever to walk the earth, but I loved the innocence of the photos in this spread. And then I remembered that most of these women are pushing 70 by now as well, so I'm sure they wouldn't mind people looking at photo's of them when they were young, beautiful, and mostly care free. So here you go ladies, here you are in all your youthful glory for all the world to see:

Vintage international traval and tourism ads

Mo-Pac was the Missouri and Pacific railroad.


Ontario looks fun as hell in that ad. Visit? Hell no, I want to live there!

This ad was approved by NAMBLA.


Classic design.

Ceylon got tired of being peaceful, so it changed it's name to Sri Lanka so the fighting could commence!

I love these deceptively simple illustrations of 1956 Rome

These come from a 1956 issue of Holiday magazine.
