Ridiculous Ads from the 1930's
Why don't you have a fag with your tape worms and lard?

They didn't call the 1930's the "Terrible Thirties" for nothing. Back then, there was no truth in advertising and for the most part companies just said whatever they wanted in their advertisements.

From the silly and male chauvinistic to the deceptive lies, here are some of the most ridiculous ads from the 1930's:

 
Some day. We can hardly wait! Please email us when that day arrives.

 

 
Blow in her face?! Didn't realize bukake was popular in the 1930's. This ad is so wrong in so many ways.

 

 
We have a correction to this ad: "More DEAD doctors smoke CAMELS than any other cigarette!"

 

fag smoke
Once the dangers of smoking became known, cigarette companies tried to put a positive spin on smoking. These guys definitely make smoking look cool. I'm gonna try to friend them on Facebook.

 

 
If this family were any happier, they'd weigh over 300 pounds each and having constant heart attacks.

 

 
There's something so wrong about a smoking Santa. Next Christmas maybe Santa will put an ash tray in my stocking.

 

 
The tape worm diet!? It's a little fuzzy, but try to read some of the text in this ad.
Easy to Swallow! • Sanitized • No Ill Effects! • Friends for a Fair Form

 

 
Because V.D. is always a female problem?

 

 
Ladies, don't douche with salt or soda. Use Lysol or you'll be trapped in a spider web
and your husband will be distant and indifferent towards you.

 

NERD NOTE: The 1930s were described as an abrupt shift to more radical and conservative lifestyles, as countries were struggling to find a solution to the Great Depression. In East Asia, the rise of militarism occurred. In Western Europe, Australia and the United States, more progressive reforms occurred as opposed to the extreme measures sought elsewhere. Roosevelt's New Deal attempted to use government spending to combat large-scale unemployment and severely negative growth. Ultimately, it would be the beginning of World War II in 1939 that would end the depression.
