Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was hard to find
Oh well, what ever, never mind (…)»

Eine durch und durch vertrauenserweckende Werbung für eine durch und durch vertrauenserweckende Fluggesellschaft: Solide gebautes Flugzeug fliegt mit attraktivem Flugbegleiterpersonal in die absolut richtige Richtung. Fehlt nur noch der alte Sloganwitz aus den frühen 1970ern: «Runter bringen wir Sie immer!»

Und so wie die Werber damals drauf waren, haben die das Flugzeuggerüst bestimmt extra zusammenschweißen lassen. Je ne peux pas Lacroix

1933: Away With A Tired Thirsty Face

24 Dec

Oh, so He changed his tired face:
He’s just the one to win the race.
He is the white, he is the red:
He’s been hard and very sweat.
He gives himself a peaceful go:
He holds upright his own flow.
He is the one who likes a pause:
So, He’s been called Santa Claus.

But what has been? And what will be?
Is there a sense for you and me?
Is there a drink? So soft, so fridge?
Is Santa Claus a snow-white witch?
You better do and find it out!
His brain, so white, so easy cloud,
Erases things like sorrow
‘Cause HE’s the man: tomorrow!

Santa Convinces Husbands: No Diamonds But An Automatic Washer

A Message from Santa Claus letting all husbands know, which Christmas Gift might be best for their best parts. The way Santa addresses his announcement to his sex collegues is outstandingly funny – seen from today’s perspective. This ad was originally published in Ladies’ Home Journal, December 1952.

Nachtrag: Zu einem Teil der hier gegenständlichen Thematik, nämlich dem des Einflusses von vorauseilendem Gehorsam beim Verfassen dadurch überflüssig gewordener Kommentare, habe ich mich hier geäußert. Nun aber dachte ich mir, daß ich ja mal nach Unzeiten wieder bei Spreeblick vorbeischauen könnte – und fand dort in meinen Augen den bisher intelligentesten Artikel zu Julian Assange, Wikileaks & Co KG. Großes Kino und Kompliment an Johnny Haeusler!
