And how about today's ads, 50 years from now?...

I love comparing how social standards change over time, especially over the last 100 years. Honestly, the 20th Century was pretty epic. I definitely would not say that all changes have been good or even necessary, but just seeing what society viewed as acceptable when our parents or grandparents were teens is pretty incredible.

And who knew that advertisements were good for anything other than commercial growth, a good laugh, or an annoying jingle, right? I love watching viantage ads on YouTube, especially from the 1950s and 1960s. I'll probably post some of those later.

But for now, here's an article featuring 27 vintage ads that would probably be banned today.
