Very interesting. I never thought of embedding bacon in a pancake!

That was very interesting to look through! Wow pretty provocative for those times some of the ads were.

I love the beer ad for Mom and Baby!

I loved the Flip N'Style hair dryer

And idk why but with the Volkswagon ad "sooner or later, your wife will drive home one of the best reasons for owning a volkswagon" the first thing I thought it was talking about was your wife having your child

The baby shaving, I did that as a toddler. I saw my DF do it and I still have a scar from it.

Beer with mom and baby, wow. And the one with blow in her face and she will follow you anywhere, um no.

<sigh> The things we know now that our parents/grandparents didn't know back then

Although, I did find out from my mom that when I was a baby (1971) she had given me alcohol once to help me sleep better . It was only supposed to be a teaspoon, but she accidently gave me a tablespoon. She was wondering why I slept so well until she told my father and found out she gave me too much <YIKES!> Maybe that is the reason why I can't stand the taste of alcohol

Now, what was the name of that country song that has the line, "What was I thinking?"

I once read in an old Mid wive's book about how drinking beer helps bring the milk down for a mom who's having a tough time with breast feeding, so maybe the old ad was going on that belief???

 

[bgirldeb]

Those were hilarious and frightening!

eek! I remember the Baby Soft ad. I loved the smell of that stuff, but that AD!.....bad!

It looked familiar to me too! Was that Drew Barrymore? Or was that before her time?
