A Bitter Taste Of Nostalgia
Every now and then, you may across an old WWII war bonds poster, or a vintage ad from the “good old days”.
They all seem to a beautifully illustrated picture tied in with a bold message. What if we still used this form of advertising for enticing young men to enroll into the military? Would you enroll? What if we still used these illustrations to push product? Would you buy? Our latest mashups take a few old-time posters with new modern messages.

My favorite one is the chick with the beer. In fact, I’m gonna go get shitfaced now!
Okay, that for me means just one beer. I don’t have the tolerance I used in my party days.

I’m all over the Navy ad that references Junk. Totally putting that in our nursery for the new baby.

Hi-five Jinksy! Now that was what I believe is culturally known nowadays as “pownage”.
