Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This hilarious treasury of old ads, accompanied by Parker's bright quips,celebrates an age of innocence (or idiocy) when advertisers could show us any old thing. How about a baby with a razor or tobacco chew? Or a gal combing her sleeping guy's trousers in search of war-bond dollars, a wife in love with cutlery. Unhealthy claims include soda pop promoted as a baby drink and bone-crushing corsets urged for little girls. Among other dubious propositions are the chin-reducing head cage and bile beans as the key to physical fitness. Outrageous Ads reminds us not to believe everything we're sold.
