MARCH 18, 2011 ~ What with the wars, the various self-inflicted calamities, rampant xenophobia, and all the rest that we've been witnessing, I thought it might be nice to check out some old posters and crate art. There's nothing like a look at how people used to think and behave to give you a little perspective. Or depression. I found most of these images at Vintagraph. Very cool. |
I love orange crate art and the like. This graphic strikes me as being particularly purdy. |
You've gotta remember that, back in the early 50s, things were way different in Texas. Not like now. |
Love the graphic. But calling one's brand "Silence" does strike me as odd. On the other hand, I'm thinking of hanging this up in my sister's apartment later today. |
More like "Creepy Kids," if you ask me. Look at their faces! |
This is the 1949 Olds "Futurama." I guess they really nailed it, huh? |
The miracle of baking soda, I guess. Tasty, too. |
Another weird-faced kid. No doubt this was put out by the American Pork Council, or Dairy Council, or something. |
I think he's dull. |
Look at that kid! An apple a day rots brain cells away. |
Sure. Trust us, we're experts. |
Not if they're beaten with a stick. |
Is it just me, or is it odd that the Army will teach you to care for lovable Ed--and also to inspect 'im after he's been butchered into tasty cuts? |
They live for stainless steel! What could be better? |
Yeah, what about that? I've always been patriotic in this regard. |
And if it's yellow, let it mellow. Naturally, we've got a water crisis here in California. But no water posters. |

Look, if people want to waste water, it's their right as free Americans to be free of the tyranny of socialist agendas.
Yeah, that's what they're dyin' and fightin' for.
