Archive for the 'vintage advertising' tag
The Hagley Museum to present "Driving Desire"
1927 Hupmobile Eight ad, emphasizing the car's style and straight-eight engine. Photos courtesy Hagley Museum.
Designing cars and manufacturing them is only half the battle. To succeed in the industry, you've got to convince customers to buy them. This art of none-too-subtle persuasion is the topic of a new exhibition entitled "Driving Desire: Automobile Advertising and the American Dream," soon to be presented by the Hagley Museum and Library in Greenville, Delaware.
1928 Packard Runabout ad.
If you've never read the works of Vance Packard or Marshall McLuhan, this show will demonstrate to you how advertising agencies and marketers convinced the public that they needed to buy new cars. It focuses on six themes they commonly used to create a sense of need among prospective customers: Luxury, economy, performance, style, patriotism and safety. Many of these remain effective automotive marketing tools today.
The 1959 Edsel Villager – perfect for the modern family.
The exhibits come from the vast collection of auto ads contributed to the Hagley by Z. Taylor Vinson, an attorney at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, who was fanatically passionate about automotive literature of all kinds. The documents cover some 1,900 automotive manufacturers and span the years from 1893 through 2009.
The 1960 Corvair, with the ultimate marketing tool: the happy all-American family.
The exhibition opens October 2 and will remain accessible to the public for a year. For more information, visit Hagley.org.
The 1974 Camaro, from A to Z28
1974 Chevrolet Camaro. Photos courtesy ProductionCars.com.
By the 1974 model year, muscle cars were no longer the hot sellers they once were, killed off by rising insurance premiums and emission control requirements that saw performance begin a downward spiral in the early years of the decade. For 1974, Chevrolet wanted Camaro buyers to know they could still get the legendary Z28, but on the other hand, the coupe came in an affordable, practical version, too.
Calling the 1974 Z28 a muscle car may be a bit of a stretch. While the model still came with a 350-cu.in. V-8, fed through a four-barrel carburetor and exhaling though a dual exhaust, output was 245 SAE net horsepower. By the 1974 model year, the Z28's Positraction rear would likely have been needed on wet pavement only, but at least buyers could appreciate the car's sport suspension, Vega-influenced restyling and bold Z28 graphics (which were, thankfully, an option).
Frugal 1974 Camaro buyers could opt for "approach A," which advised that the base V-6 model's sticker price of $3,162 was "less money than you might imagine." Those seeking more amenities (but not necessarily added performance) could opt for the LT trim level, with its undefined "sumptuous interior and other elegant touches."
Overall, the 1974 restyling (and perhaps Chevrolet's marketing efforts) delivered dividends. In 1973, Chevrolet built 89,988 Camaros for domestic sales, including 11,574 with the Z28 package. The following year, it built 146,595 Camaros for U.S. consumption, including 13,802 Z28 models. While that represents a 2,228 unit increase in Z/28 sales, as a percentage of production, the Camaro's sportiest version fell from 12.9 percent of sales to 9.4 percent of sales.
In 1975, the Z28 was temporarily dropped from the Camaro product line, but it would reappear midway through the 1977 model year. It would remain as Chevrolet's highest performance model until replaced by the International Race of Champions-inspired IROC-Z in 1985.
How would you caption this 1950s General Tire photo?
General Tire advertising image from the 1950s. From the author's collection.
Wow, what a hat!
This black-and-white press release photograph from General Tire – circa 1955 – depicts a female model with a big "tire" hat that mimics the thin black lines shown on the tire's wide-white sidewall. The bias-ply tire is fitted with a nondescript full wheelcover, with the word "GENERAL" on the sidewall on top highlighted in white for all to see.
It's quite an interesting period photograph, and certainly representative of that era's sexist times. Nonetheless, it's a very eye-catching photograph that really does grab your attention.
If you were in General Tire's ad department and had to write a simple one-line caption, what would it say?
Stearns-Knight, "America's Most Artistic Expression of the Motor Mode"
Mechanically speaking, Stearns-Knight automobiles were some of the best engineered cars of the prewar era, and beyond. While their styling wasn't much different from all the other automobiles that were being produced during that period, the level of their construction and fit and finish were well above the average automobile being produced, not only in America but in Europe as well.
The marketing men knew that, and they wanted to make sure the public knew it too. That is why the Stearns-Knight display ads that they created for the then-popular publications, such as Life, The Saturday Evening Post, Time, and The New Yorker clearly made reference to that fact.
As flaunted in this early 1930-era display ad, it states: "In Europe, Knight-motored cars are almost invariably chosen by such discerning motorists. In America, the De Luxe Stearns-Knight enjoys a similar acceptance among the connoisseurs of fine motor cars."
The bold, proud ad copy continued by affirming: "The masterful design of Stearns coachwork – the artistry with which this design is executed – win the instant admiration of the most critical – the most fastidious. An arresting grace of line, a deftness in the arrangement of interior appointments, a unity of craftsmanship, combine with superb performance to make the De Luxe Stearns-Knight the criterion of American automobiles."
But Stearns-Knight's real signature feature was its unique sleeve-valve engine, for which it was well known throughout the world. Back in 1911, the F.B. Stearns Company bought the production rights to the English-developed Knight sleeve-valve engine, which it built under license at its factory in Cleveland, Ohio. It was an effective design, which featured rotating metal sleeves in each cylinder that incorporated specially shaped port holes that allowed the air/fuel mixture to enter and escape the cylinder as it rotated in-sync to the combustion cycle. Unlike the mainstream poppet-valve design, the sleeve valve was simple, durable, and a whole lot quieter during operation. And it was quite powerful, too.
Promoting this "breakthrough" engine, the display ad stated: "It is to be expected that Stearns, pioneer of the Knight engine in this country, should now offer an eight-cylinder Knight motor, and, complementing this supreme sleeve-valve engine, a Worm Drive Rear Axle – thus effecting a power transmission unit which is unsurpassed and which cannot be obtained in any American car."
Unfortunately, the Depression hit, and Stearns-Knight, among many other auto manufacturers, simply could not survive. The last year of production was 1930, thus bringing to an end one of America's most innovative independent automobile manufacturers.
Old advertisements from unexpected sources can be a rewarding treasure hunt
Images courtesy the author.
The edges may be yellowed, but the message remains the same. Black-and-white or color, hard or soft sell, old magazine ads of your favorite car (or cars) do more than just simply pitch a product. They capture a moment in history, however stage-set and idealized it might be. The Art Deco 1930s, the jet-age 1950s, the horsepower-fueled 1960s, the compact austerity of the 1970s… ads exemplify their time. Not just because they are of their time, but because they want to capture the situation of the moment and use those criteria to help sell you a car. They become part of the zeitgeist of the era that your favorite car was built in.
There are probably ads for your favorite car that you've never seen, and for plenty of reasons. So discovering new ads for old cars seems like an odd pursuit… yet it can be done.
Of course, buff-book readers know lots of the ads for their favorite performance cars, but some car companies ran multiple campaigns in the United States simultaneously: Witness Pontiac's evocative, image-heavy Art Fitzpatrick/Van Kaufman color illustrations versus a simple, stark, studio-shot piece. Magazines specializing in fleet management would have their own ads on base models, emphasizing durability and cost to run.
The Big Three also advertised in magazines like Time and National Geographic, often with completely different ads for the same cars. Time readers might be more interested in pricing and economy, for example, while NatGeo ads would be more geared toward traveling in comfort. (National Geographic also produced an English-language version of the magazine for Benelux countries in Europe, which came with a whole different set of ads, though the content of the magazine itself remained identical.)
Magazines like Ebony ran parallel Big Three campaigns, utilizing ethnic models to shift the same product. Magazines specializing in fleet management would have their own ads on base models, emphasizing durability and cost to run. Though few and far between in our experience, ladies' magazines (Redbook, Ladies' Home Journal and the like) also run car ads – frequently for station wagons, with the emphasis on shopping and shuttling the expanding familial brood to and fro with a minimum of difficulty.
Many American cars were sold in foreign countries, and their ads were more than just carbon copies of American ad campaigns. Mexico and Canada had their own campaigns for the early Mustang, for example. And some American cars were assembled and sold overseas: Fords in Australia and Brazil, for example, or Ramblers and Chevelles in South Africa. Every country has their own language and their own magazines; they are worth pursuing.
And they even trace the history of publishing. Marvel at color ads taking over for black-and-white as early as the 1930s, and even earlier. See how photography gradually took over for line drawings in the 1950s. Recall that Life magazine ceased publication in late 1972; their gloriously oversized, framable artwork ads largely petered out before the launch of the 1973 models. But that leaves models from the 1920s to the dawn of the 1970s intact and ready to be framed. The NatGeo-sized ads are colorful but small; they remain a delightful addition to any enthusiast's collection.
In terms of value, it's hard to say: online auction sites are choked with $5 and $6 ads, nicely bagged up with an acid-free cardboard backing, so chasing them is less about finding a piece you're going to retire on than it is about expanding your knowledge about the history of your favorite car – even if that history is in a language you can't read.

I love this place! It is one of my favorite places to dive in the Houston area. My husband and I will usually make this our 'checkout' dive at the beginning of the season just to make sure everything is working correctly and we will head out here right before a big trip just to brush up on skills. It's...
Sheila, Bryan, and Jim took time to help us gain a great understanding for scuba diving. My sweetheart was new to scuba and I was getting re-certified. This team of experts made us feel so comfortable. We repeated skills over and over with direct supervision until we could do the skills with our eyes closed. I never thought I'd be...
Been to the blue lagoon 2 times to swim denied swimming both times the arrived early one day denied swimming got a hotel the night before just to be early was there an hour before open still denied to swim.... Unless you are diving and are licensed don't bother going to this location it will be a waste of money...
This is our new favorite dive spot inland. Excellent staff and facilities! We had 15-25 foot visibility all weekend in a greet locale. It's about a the hour drive for us, but it was worth the trip. Underwater diving platforms, a couple of boats have been sunk, lots of little minnows around the bottom of the boats. Great experience!!
I was here last year and diving was pretty good. But this time it was real murky and visibility was only about 5 feet. I believe it was because of the swimmers on the surface stirring up the silt. The road getting back to the dive sites are full of ruts, some quite deep. You better have a pick up...
This has to be the greatest scuba diving destination in Texas. The place is well run and clean and has everything a diver would need from gear to nitrox. It has a very friendly and knowledgeable staff . The water is very clear with boats , structures and even a stagecoach for exploring ! This is by far our favorite...
I was very happy with my visit to the Blue Lagoon.Water was clear.It was nice and quiet.We stayed at the wally camp.Very secluded.Loved snorkeling,did it the whole time I was there,and taught my daughter how.She loved it,and took my gear away so she would do it.I will definitely go back as soon as we can.Not very many places around Houston...
A typical Texas lake. Depth is a shallow 20 something feet.... 25 maybe? Visibility depends totally on the time of year. In the spring and winter visibility is good. Summer brings the algae bloom and so the visibility drops drastically down. On the weekends there are often students getting certified so visibility is less due to students kicking up silt...
While getting certified with Texan Scuba, we did our dives in the Blue Lagoon
Our instructors were amazing, Thanks Sheila, Pat and Jim!
The site is amazing. Words here will not do it justice so check it out for yourself
The owners, Phil and Sharla, as well as the staff make you feel like you belong!
Great experience and great...
I decided to go there using the information that is here. I did not see the website, so I arrived there at 5, and after 4 nobody is allowed to enter. We were invited to leave the place. The fees seem to high for me.

Neb. girl who resembles drug, robbery suspect held in jail more than a week
The Associated Press
The difference is, one of them is suspected of helping an armed man rob a convenience store, and the other spent more than a week in jail for it.
Amanda Sylvester, 17, was arrested Oct. 23 in connection with the robbery. She was freed Oct. 31 after a tip led police to charge Kayce Schildhauer, 19, in the case.
Police apologized to Sylvester, whom another suspect had picked out of a photo lineup, and said her close resemblance to Schildhauer had thrown them off.
"There is a lesson to be learned here, that everything isn't always what it appears," Chief Martin Gutschenritter said. "It's uncanny, I have never seen anything like this."
Sylvester had been arraigned on charges of possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, and aiding and abetting a robbery, with bail set at $25,000 (euro19,400). Police now say they suspect her of nothing.
Police Lt. Rick Ryan said three men arrested in the case told police they knew the female accomplice only as "Shorty." They gave a physical description that matched Sylvester, and one of them identified her as the accomplice when shown a photo of her.
Cindy Bradley, Sylvester's foster mother, said she had been unable to afford bail.
Robert Lindemeier, a public defender, said he had been assigned to Schildhauer's case but stepped aside because he also had represented Sylvester. He said he did not know whether a new attorney had been assigned to her.

Health & Safety:
Washburn is one of the safest campuses I've experienced or heard of, the only event that's happened was a local flashed a student, but the situation was taken care of quickly and effectively, and there was a prompt notice sent out to all students following the event, warning students to be cautions and to always travel in pairs or groups.
Health & Safety:
We have a small campus with security on patrol most hours of every day.
Health & Safety:
The worst problem is the area surrounding the campus. Some thefts have occurred out of parked vehicles.

I feel safe on campus.

This is an okay product. It removes my makeup but requires a little bit of effort in removing my mascara (not waterproof). I use this in Green tea and I luv the smell of this product as it's very refreshing and the small beads just give the cleansing ritual an extra zing to it; however, this cleanser is too oily for my taste. I can't be bothered with the extra time it requires for mascara removal and the oiliness, as I much prefer Cle de Peau Cream Cleanser / Eve Lom Cleanser. I follow-up with the Amore Pacific Treatement Cleanser to remove the oily residue. Not repurchasing this.

Helped my acne sooo much! It reduced my breakouts and kept my skin smooth. It did not dry out my skin after it was washed off. Must buy!!

Thoroughly removes my waterproof sunblock and bb cream. Leaves a residue if you don't wipe it off properly; however, you can easily follow up with a separate cleanser if you find that your skin feels sticky. I've been using this for about a week and it hasn't broken my combo acne prone skin out.
(11/30/12): Takes a lot of effort in ensuring that it doesn't break me out. Does make my under eye skin plump up a little, which makes me look like I have eye bags. I'm still going to give it a rating of 5 since I think it's a great product. Not sure what I'm going to do with it since I can't use it on my eyes either.

CG Mockbusters
The Asylum gets all the attention (and the lucrative gig filling time for "SyFy") but they're far from the only company out there making "mockbusters," those ultra low budget, direct-to-DVD movies named similar to big Hollywood blockbusters, in the hopes that an inattentive purchaser will buy their movie in the hopes they're getting something better. But The Asylum's not the only ones making them, and a prominent mockbuster subgenre is that of companies making really poor CG movies that resemble Pixar and Dreamworks hits only to the extent that they can maintain plausible, legal deniability, their profit margins relying on clueless grandparents getting something nice for the little ones.

Disney's Lilo & Stitch, everything is blown up, more fun, also more real
Lilo & Stitch is an odd movie to come from Disney for a number of reasons: a rare work based on an original story, set in a realistic version of the "island paradise" of Hawaii, focusing on strong female characters who have a realistic/varied bodyshapes. For more insight into the making of the "affordable" Disney film, here's Lilo & Stitch revisited, Part I, interviewing the creators Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, and Part II, featuring master animator Andreas Deja. For a taste of the animation, here are four teaser clips of Stitch invading other Disney films, the official full version of the Lion King interrupted trailer, and making of Lilo & Stitch short docu-clip.
Walking City
Walking City - "Referencing the utopian visions of 1960's architecture practice Archigram, Walking City is a slowly evolving video sculpture. The language of materials and patterns seen in radical architecture transform as the nomadic city walks endlessly, adapting to the environments she encounters."

On January 19th, the animation world lost one of its most idiosyncratic and principled voices, Michael Sporn. Sporn not only gathered accolades for his work, including an Oscar nomination for his short Dr. Desoto (excerpt) and four Emmy awards, he also won the respect of the animation community and the affection and high regard of those who worked with him, and for his wonderful Splog, which has been linked previously, 1 2 High quality clips of his work can be viewed at his website (see link in the comments.)

Random Togetherness
Dennis Hlynsky is a professor of film and animation at RISD whose most recent work, titled Small Brains on Mass, looks at bird behavior, particularly how they interact when flying in groups. To better understand how flying as a flock is achieved, Hlynsky filmed the birds and then stacked the images on the same frame for a set number of frames, the results show each bird's flight as a trail, but synchronized with the flock. The results are often pure poetry. [more inside]

The Parallax Effect: Bringing still images to pseudo-life
The "2.5D" Parallax Effect: How To Animate a Photo provides a quick tutorial of the methods used to animate still images, as seen in the documentary The Kid Stays in the Picture (see the trailer for some fleeting examples), and clearly employed by this video that utilized only images from the World Wildlife Foundation's photo archives. The technique is also used in what appears to be more standard animation, as seen in this thesis animation project from Arquis B. Silp, and this animation by Frederic Kokott (look behind the scenes).

Jupiter in motion, as photographed and drawn from Earth
Redditor bubbleweed took a five and half hour time-lapse of Jupiter, and made this gif to show Jupiter from Io's frame of reference [WARNING: 4.6mb GIF | alternate: 60kb HTML5 video]. But why simply photograph Jupiter, when you can take the time to really know the planet and draw it, repeatedly, as Frédéric Burgeot has done. His work included a flat texture map* which Pascal Chauvet turned into an animated version of Jupiter (Vimeo). [more inside]

A Bear Called Paddington, from darkest Peru to TV (and the internet)
It all started on Christmas Eve 1965 (Google books preview), as a cold and wet Michael Bond was doing some last minute shopping. He had missed a bus, and ducked inside a department store to get out of the sleet. It was there that he saw a small bear, all alone on a shelf. On a whim, he picked it up as a stocking stuffer for his wife. The couple named him after the Paddington railway station that was near where they lived at the time. A few months later, Bond turned to Paddington to break his writers block, and the Paddington books were born. Paddington was turned into the UK's favorite animated character thanks to the 56 five-minute long episodes and three longer specials that were originally aired in the 1970s and 1980s, and are online in one form or another.

Metafilter: Everything has a point
The Point! (1971) is the animated TV adaptation of singer/songwriter Harry Nilsson's fable about a boy named Oblio, the only round-headed person in the Pointed Village, where by law everyone and everything had to have a point. Despite his round head, Oblio has many friends. But an evil count, jealous that Oblio is more popular than his own son, says that without a pointed head, Oblio is an outlaw. Along with his faithful dog Arrow, Oblio is exiled to the Pointless Forest. There, he has many fantastic experiences (including encounters with a 3-headed man, giant bees, a tree in the leaf-selling business, and a good-humored old rock). From his adventures, Oblio learns that it is not at all necessary to be pointed to have a point in life. Directed by Fred Wolf and narrated by Ringo Starr, the film features all the original songs from Nilsson's album of the same name. [more inside]

Good location, room not so much
Everything was a bit average for a hotel that's part of the West End.
It didn't help that my room was right under the dishwasher room/kitchen so at 6-6.30 all I heard through the roof was banging and clattering. Nice enough people though, service was ok but not outstanding.

Good price for one night stay
We stayed here for one night as it was close to Byres Road.
The hotel is lovely and staff were great. We had an attic room which meant we had lots of stairs to climb. Our room was small but comfortable. We could not get the heating to come on, but a staff member sorted this in the bedroom for us. There was no heat in the bathroom. Breakfast was very good, with good service. We would stay here again.

Wayne Goodwin meets with firefighters, county leaders.
Being 317 miles from Raleigh, it isn't often that state officials make their way into Macon County. Last week, Wayne Goodwin, who serves as North Carolina's Insurance Commissioner as well as the State Fire Marshal, visited counties in the western part of the state in hopes of bridging that gap.
"As Insurance Commissioner and State Fire Marshal, it is necessary and vital for me to reach out to all counties across North Carolina," said Goodwin. "Growing up in a rural county myself, I empathize with how many western counties feel when 'Raleigh' wrongly thinks the western part of the state ends in Asheville or Hickory. Macon County residents deserve service from statewide officials just as much as every other county. So, I spend much of my time traveling in-person to all corners of the state and being as accessible and helpful as possible. It's always a pleasure of mine to visit Macon and surrounding counties."
