Beautiful!!!!! As an amateur radio operator, scanner and shortwave listener, that ad is beautiful! It has to be early 1960’s, looks like a Hallicrafters 120 maybe.

One more thing, I’ve heard that SOB from a Panasonic 4 band radio (my grandmother’s), a Sanyo RP8700 (also the first time I heard Mugabe in 1979/80), a Patrolman SW-60 and me DX-440. The DX-440 needs alignment so I’m stuck with the old Sanyo and Patrolman. BTW, I remember my grandmother said I could have the Panasonic when she passes away, well, she’s 93 now and when she moved, she can’t remember what she did with it. B-) She got my into shortwave radio and scanners which led to ham radio.

OMG!

Same here, but at thirteen 45 years ago! It's the filter that kills ya! That ad held true when I worked ER, better than half our staff smoked, in the ER, and Camels, Pall Malls, and, Lucky Strikes were the preferred blend...

Camel non filters are the first smokes the commissary runs out of btw, so one can assume we aren't the only ones who enjoy real cigarettes!

Actually that’s a spoof ad from a Brit mag called “Viz” that seems to have been a Brit version of the Onion back in the late 80’s early 90’s.

I have a sad story to tell you
It may hurt your feelings a bit
Last night as I walked into my bathroom
I stepped in a big pile of ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

I think I'll break off with my girlfriend
Her antics are queer, I'll admit
Each time I say, "Darling, I love you"
She tells me that I'm full of ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

Our baby fell out of the window
You'd think that her head would be split
But good luck was with her that morning
She fell in a barrel of ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

My old lady died in a bathtub
She died from a terrible fit
In order to fulfill her wishes
She was buried in six feet of ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

When I was in France with the army
One day I looked inside my kit
I thought i would find me a sandwich
But the darn thing was loaded with ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

And now folks my story is ended
I think it is time I should quit
And if anyone of you feel offended
Push your head in a bucket of ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

what's with the French Pig ad?

Ever notice in general how many ads feature animals that are not only willing, but eager to be eaten?
