Almost a month old but I didn't see it posted (search) and thought it would be a good Friday type of thread.

Some of those made me gasp — were they acceptable in society then? To show a man spanking his wife? A baby holding a razor? A tiger rug with a woman’s head and a man’s foot on it?
Woah

LOL! The #11 to #10 sequence makes sense.

I don’t think the root beer ad is that bad.

I used to have a copy of the Chase and Sanborn "Store Test" ad hanging on my bulletin board at work, but the HR weenies made me take it down. They just don't understand irony...

Okay, I'll bite.
14, 13, 8, 5, 2, and 1 are disturbing or just bizarre...especially #'s 2 and 13, but the rest are just consistent with feelings at the time they were published.
- How many times did Rick Ricardo spank Lucy?
- The chubby section was where I did pretty much all of my shopping when I was a kid, it was considered an inoffensive way of alluding to fat kids.
- What's wrong with a BB gun? Daisy used to be one of the most respected trademarks in America.
It is unfair to judge old ads by today's standards.
As for the foreign ads, well...there's no accounting for foreigners.
