Old Gold Scarecrow

 This ad comes from a lot of 1940's and 50's Saturday Evening Post magazines I bought at an estate sale this weekend.  The magazines were $1 each. How could I resist?  This particular ad comes from the October 21st, 1953 edition.



I'll probably do a blog on some of the other magazines at some point this winter.  I know, hold your breath.

      Thanks, Joe. I always have good intentions. It just seems like life gets away from me, and moreso lately.

    man, it's so weird to see ads for cigarettes. it's like seeing old ads touting how great asbestos is.

      And one is meant to burn, while the other is meant to not burn... Coincidence?
