I'm going to leave it off here for tonight, It's getting late! But I have plenty more to upload tomorrow once Robert sees this thread and O.K's it. I don't want to be sending VacuumLand into debt by exceeding bandwidth or something!


 


P.S-Who can identify that Stand Mixer in the background?


 


Hope you enjoy what I've posted so far! And don't forget-Modern homes have handy phones!

The stand mixer looks to be a GE. My aunt had the same one.

Here's take two!

These images have all been scanned from the same April 1958 issue of National Geographic, Here's the rest of the images before I'm off to scan more!


 


This one is a slide projector-A "Balomatic" model!

Again-Robert please let me know if you're fine with the flooding of vintage advertising this thread is about to see, And if this is an acceptable scanning quality for Automatic Ephemera. I'll be leaving off here for now while I scan some more advertisements! Feedback is always welcomed!

 

[arh1953]

I have piles of old Geographics, as well as Life Magazine, I love all their ads! Especially the Frigidaires from the late '50's. 

 

[luxman107]

I love this kind of stuff. Thanks for sharing

 

[super-sweeper]

Glad you all are enjoying it!

I scanned the adds from a JUNE 1955 issue the other night,here they are!


Again again-I'm hoping Robert doesn't mind all of these large advertisements.


Please let me know if this a acceptable scanning quality for Automatic Ephermera!


 


Now-Presenting CADILLAC! The world's favorite luxary car brand!


 

 

[super-sweeper]

I LOVE

The class and elegance of that Cadillac add, along with the 1950s itself!


 


Here's some adds presented in the new Picture thingy-Including:


 


The gift that needs no occasion (HOOVERS don't need an occasion to arrive on your doorstep, either! of course,Eureka, Kirby and the like are always welcomed!)


 


The next add is a mix-match of adds on one page, including Adolph's salt-substituite (I couldn't imagine many people back then needing such a thing-unless you had a high blood pressure or something like that.The people of yesterday where not so bent on being so thin!).


Followed by a WESTON exposure meter (I still take photos on FILM-Except those I have to upload here! I'm on the 35 milimeter format-But Polaroid 600 is always fun-only the film is $25 for 8 photos, where as 35mm is around $12 for 96 photos!


Followed by some vacation add for Sun Valley, Idaho. Give meyour state and I'm bound to have a vacation add for it (I know I have a couple canadian adds, Minnesota and Florida!)! if any one has a request, let me know!

Hot & Muggy nights are coming!

(Notice to you fans of Swamp Coolers-This is only 1 ad  of many others!)

 

[super-sweeper]

DeSoto Fans!

Unite! I love DeSotos myself-My favorite being the 1961 4-Door (DeSoto's very last car-The one that Chrysler had made to both blow $7,000,000 In DeSoto parts, and to make sure the giant '61 model failed in the new world of compact cars).


 


I know there's someone over on Automatic Washer who loves DeSotos, I forget their Username. I believe this was their dream car (I call the '61 I'm in love with my "DreamSoto!". If anyone  could  send him over here, or send them the picture, I'm sure they'd love it.


 


The woman driving it is Anne Forgarty, A famous fashion designer.

The world's golf-course capitol!

See? Here's the ad for Florida I told you about! Florida looks like it was FUN back then (And it still is, mostly-But more than just Florida has gone down in fun levels!).
