20 Strangest Vintage Ads ...
By Sheila

Before you plunge into the evil that is Monday, I bring to you some rather strange but hilarious (if you have a twisted sense of humor like mine) vintage ads that are bound to make you go "What were they thinking?!!". I don't know about simpler times but these definitely come from stranger times.

All so creepy and awesome both at the same time! Great collection :D

The vibra-finger was hilarious. And 'Lucky Strike' has always had some intriguing marketing and publicity tactics... This was really funny, and it was the perfect thing to take my mind off the fact that tomorrow is Monday.

These are too funny, Sheila - and your comments are even funnier :D Sadly, I remember the Love's Baby Soft ads - from the early seventies - I was a tween/young teen when they came out and you better believe I bought it, wore it, and loved it! Couldn't see how creepy the ads were back then - as a mom now I'd have a fit if I saw something like that aimed at my girls. Anyway thanks for the Sunday afternoon giggles - gotta share this!

Great Post! I couldn't stop laughing with number 20!!! :)
