Was going to post some of these in the Picture thread but I think these deserve their own spotlight @El Toro . Plus members may have a few of their own to add. Anyway what they lack in imagination by God do they make up for with sexual innuendo in spades. Most un-PC these days
This ad was from the time Phil Read was so hard up for money he resorted to nude modelling to drum up business - leading to the headline: SPEEDY READIE'S A NEEDY NUDIE
Amazing period pieces. Where did you get them from? The typography in the long copy Kawasaki ads look very American. They can’t be though, there are Cricket bats in the second one. Uk or Aus? As for the Life helmet one, I remember that!
Both are from Playboy mag editions in 1980. I got them off the net so i can only guess the presence of the bats was something Kawa placed knowing the circulation of the mag? Can't imagine they printed an Aus/UK variant.
Good God Could You imagine The do good squad nowadays with these adverts? The hairy arm pitted dark rimmed glass wearing rab fleece wearing women’s rights things would have a march about it lol
Didnt Hollywood post on here a few years back, then everyone ripped the piss out of him then his lawyers got on to E.T....?
