Ads From Back In The Day – #3

Posted on January 27, 2019 by toritto

Airlines need women!  But only as stews, ticket agents or receptionists for “a lifetime career of romance, adventure and travel!”

Here’s an ad targeting black people – its a “bleaching cream” for “complexion beauty” which won’t “wash off” – Nadinola Light for a “smoother, brighter, lighter appearance.”

 

This one is rather self-explanatory with one plain and simple objective .  “How to meet her, get her turned on and get her into bed.”    As if women are prey.

About toritto

I was born during year four of the reign of Emperor Tiberius Claudius on the outskirts of the empire in Brooklyn. I married my high school sweetheart, the girl I took to the prom and we were together for forty years until her passing in 2004. We had four kids together and buried two together. I had a successful career in Corporate America (never got rich but made a living) and traveled the world. I am currently retired in the Tampa Bay metro area and live alone. One of my daughters is close by and one within a morning’s drive. They call their pops everyday. I try to write poetry (not very well), and about family. Occasionally I will try a historical piece relating to politics. :-)

    I shouldn’t laugh… 🙂
    (The skin bleaching ad is actually very sad. Look what happened to Michael Jackson)
    Best wishes, Pete.

    And I knew a girl who wanted to be an air hostess, when I was 18. I asked her if it was so she could travel to see wonderful places, and she replied “No, to marry a pilot”. She was serious, and that was in 1970. I found out much later that she became an air hostess, for BOAC. She didn’t marry a pilot, but she did marry a rich passenger who was a fair bit older than her.
