I love old ads. I even enjoy looking at the ones from my childhood.
I especially like the ones for the latest greatest electronics and appiances. I found one from 1985 for a cassette player walkman, that thing was $50... they're always good for a few laughs ![]()
God bless those heroes who suffered and died, for plain folks, like you and me.
War is a crime. Ask the infantry and ask the dead.
Ya, it is a lot of fun. Great to see the prices things were going for too.
