The vintage Ad I chose was the 1986 Maxell tape Ad. “The tape that lasts as long as the legend”. The ad had a solid blue back ground with a yellow and pink lines outlining Marilyn Monroe’s picture. Marilyn Monroe’s gorgeous face can be seen clearly on the ad the yellow eyeshadow and the red lips instantly catch the views attention. I believe that the ad was targeted more so for men due to the sensual picture of Marilyn Monroe that they chose. The ad also states how even after 29 films Marilyn remained the delicious dessert and the fantasy of all men. I can understand what they were trying to say by the reference of the delicious dessert, however it is kind of funny how they are comparing a human to something that is meant to be eaten. Maxell
