What sort of man reads Playboy? Judging by the penultimate picture, the sort of man who remains blithely oblivious of the fact that he’s doing a bunny-rabbit impersonation and that girls are laughing at him.
These are just great! I love those ads. Love the 60s though they thought most women were stupid enough to fall for all this. Maybe they did. And we are jaded now.
Great post.
Hi,
I’m curious if anyone knows where I could get a print of one of these. They would make a perfect birthday present for a friend.
