Weird, Weird Advertisements

Back with some more strange ads from comics from the middle of the 20th century. Seriously, people are going to look back at that century and be flummoxed one day.

I hope.

Anyway...

This first one is from Pep #226, and it's so great. I kind of which I had these. I would wear them over my existing facial hair.

Brilliant. I love the mismatch of the hair colours - they don't care. You'll have sideburns! It's a matter of the drapes not matching the little lace doilies on the coffee table.

I have forgotten where this next one came from, but it's almost certainly an Eclipse comic, maybe one of the issues of P.J. Warlock I read a little while back. It's an anti-SDI comic from the early 80s, demonstrating, somewhat heavy-handedly, the problems with Reagan's Star Wars initiative. It reminds me of the National Social Welfare Assembly comics I posted a while back, though perhaps more overtly political in nature. Unsurprising, for Eclipse.
