Title: An old Electrolux ad
Post by: Richard230 on August 29, 2018, 10:13:57 AM

Here is something that I thought was kind of funny to brighten up your day and even has a bit of a connection to electric vehicles: The September issue of Motorcycle Consumer News contains an article written by Glynn Kerr regarding dumb ad campaigns and slogans. Most of them are motorcycle related, but he also included this old ad by Electrolux, which I thought was pretty funny. Hopefully the picture is not too small to read.

Apparently, that was a real ad campaign:
