The good old days when movies, ads, priests, etc begged you to hurt your wife's rear end with your hand.

Oh and it was in Comics too. Lois Lane getting spanked by friend and foe alike then saying in the next panel she can't sit down for someone take out of context 70 years later. It seems like the Hays Code and Comics Code had a weird exception for spanking.

One thing I like about the illustrated ads of this time is that the people managing these things clearly told the artists "I want these people to be ecstatic in this ad. Amazing happy, deleriously happy!" And the artist would do this -  And the results would be odd but fine. Though often they'd do this, and the results would look a little crazy instead:  20th century consumer consuming:     I find the car ads interesting because they are often gorgeously illustrated (like seriously, one GM artist clearly has a thing for Monet as his compositions refrence him frequently) but unless y'all want to see painting of rich white idealized people I'll pedal softly on those   Station Wagons were often 1) the most expensive line in a model, and the one families most often bought.  Another thing about these ads was ad copy, which was typically much longer than it is today  Also, in the 1965-1970 era things were so good you'll see a lot of ads specifically targeting the "second car" family.

My personal favorite is this one from 1942. I think the story behind the loopy ad copy is that at some point in the 1930s, somebody was making cola and labeling it "Koke".

new content: interesting that they felt it necessary to explain what the term meant  "Look in the Books" is a reference to weather almanacs, which published entire years of meteorological forecasts at a time. I have no idea why the store's owners felt it was important that they Paid No Rent.  any nobbier and it could apply for a post in the Ankh-Morpork City Watch  in 1904, this is what teenage boys masturbated to  You just don't see advertisers associating their own products with suicide any more.  ... or saying "bunkoed".  clothes that will bring out the ejaculation!  Fascinating that they'd feel the need to explain why a refrigerator is useful  "Political ketchup ad" ?  (actual front-page headline in a real non-parody newspaper)  "Slightly Shopworn Drop Heads"?  stick a glowtube up your nose and cure all ails!

Well if you're spending the money, might as well remind people.  All of the arrow shirt ads are horrible, they were like the Axe body spray of the 1950s:  Similarly this swimwear maker had ads filled with double meanings and Freudian imagery:  Speaking of  Remember! Dress nicely, it's the law!  Generally they were a little too on the nose about this sorta thing:   Of course there was literally other stuff they were insensitive to   Don't even know why I kept this one:

 1961  how generous    i see a lot of ads that for books and lectures that are like "who are the russians? what are they thinking? what are they going to dooooooooo?" suggesting that everyday life in the soviet union was more or less a mystery to the average american.  hmmm i wonder why they don't really do this anymore. hmmm. hmmmmmmmmmm hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm  21st century guy: "who cares"   it's me, i'm waste king universal  this is weird, i can't find any information on this group and that address is a residential apartment in upper manhattan. i'm thinking either a kook or a cia phishing scheme for commie sympathizers  i bet that some of those plays were hilarious dogshit. here's my spec for hobo: spotlight in the middle of the stage. a man with a stick and bindle steps into the middle and addresses the audience. "well hello there. my name's joe, but you can call me hobo joe or just hobo. i bet you don't see me when you walk down the street. or maybe, you don't want to see me..." etc. etc.   "uh did we get any big names?"  still a lot of stuff that in this age of mass mass mass production you would consider some bullshit you get at ikea  jesus christ JESUS CHRIST     some cool booze and cool dudes

 1962 its been a hwile since i updated this - and ive gotten a lil crazier.... uh so pardon if there are any repeats   its very difficult to relate to the idea of like.... advertising a shipment of sugarplums that came from portugal in the newspaper. "honey, fuckin check it out they're from portugal get out hte stationary and the checkbook we're going to enquore if they would discount it if we bought a lot o 20 of em"  what up my comedy nerds  no thank-you  dangerous and frightening characters like poets n folk singers   i think it stinks, commie  i wonder if you could trace a line of flight between advertisements like this and the adoption of eastern philosophy by westerners (fuckin hippies) towards the end of the decade  in 1962, i'm starting to see a lot more political advertising..... kennedy is prez right now uh in case you were wondering    these play titles are still hilarious     walton's truffle? indubitably egg l'orange? youbetcha creamed oyster? uff-da!  this chef seems really unconcerned for how bad he's loving his own poo poo up  of the uh, i guess you would call them big three of silent comedy leading men - buster keaton, harold lloyd and charlie chaplin - harold lloyd was always my favorite. he just had such a charming smile~~~ you might have seen this clip of him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEcTjhUN_7U  literarily significant gross dude arthur miller   this was my favorite liquor store in all of nyc because for a month they had bombay sapphire on sale on a deep discount..... never had that sale again, but i was forever chasing that sale dragon  no i dont think i will    you want me to snort..... oh oh ok i think i see what you're saying very nice. very nice  the infection........begins   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb-rihW_SwU   ....thanks esquore    they say that late at night, if you listen really closely, you can hear the soft (tink tink tink) of the telephone man out on the peak, luring children to a tumbling death  i get it

 1963  i still dont understand what is with the extra dividend days     nitecrew!!!!!!  i uh.................... wonder if this is medically accurate  this one's not particularly remarkable..... none have been so far this year. i just like corinthian columns   MY MOTHER-IN-LAW   the telephone ads are actually almost always amazing. this one's some weird kind of housewife shaming????  oops how did this one get in here ha ha  i realize that i gravitate naturally towards any advertisement that's like "THING!!! THING!!! THING!!!!" so its kind of an effective strategy 1963 kind of sucks
