Advertising in the 1960s was bold, colorful, text-heavy, and often completely unfiltered by today’s standards. From convincing housewives that a new kitchen appliance would solve all their problems to using groovy typography to entice the masses, these ads were as much a reflection of the era as they were a sales pitch.
