Here are a few from an old magazine.
And one interesting article/topic that I didn't realize went back that far.
Familiar to any of you other old timers ?
Guess the year.
Enjoy smile

Not sure of the year, but never forget the progressive road signs like this one:

The one who drives when

He's been drinking

Depends on you

To do his thinking.

I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

Up until about ten years ago someone kept the old Burma Shave signs going about fifty miles northwest of me. One of my favorites:

Said the farmer

Who was bald on top

I wish I could

Rotate the crop

Eh...wot?

I have a bunch of Life Magazines from the WW 2 era. Bought them at a flea market for .50 each. All the ads the company’s ran all pertained to the war effort.
