Vintage Ads on Google News

[tsteves5]

There must be hundreds of old washer newspaper ads on Google News. If you've got a few hours to kill, you really should check it out. It's quite entertaining. Just keep away from the "pay-per-view" pages.

Here is an ad clearing out the '57 Frigidaires in '58.

Thanks for the info!

Nice graphic on that Frigidaire 1-18 ad. And that was ALL done by hand I bet, with airbrushes, stencils and rapidographs.

Very nice ads - they really put a lot into that artwork! I have a book of "camera ready" artwork from Kelvinator and some from Hotpoint for print advertising use by dealers. I should dig that out...
