For the love of Retro. I know I haven't updated this blog in a while; life has been unforgivingly busy. But here it is my latest post, an ad from the yesteryears. For over 6 decades now Parle G has served every generation to cross its path.

For the love of Retro. Kissed by a Sailor. Thousands of people gathered at Times Square on the 14th of August, 1945 in New York City to listen to the official announcement of the 'End of the War'. And when that sign flashed at 7:03 with the much awaited message by President Truman, it was like the heavens had opened it's door at Times Square. There were cries of victory, laughter amongst the cheering crowd, strangers hugged each other and sailors kissed their maidens. Filed under: Alfred Eisenstaedt.

For the love of Retro. The Wilde Wilde Oscar. This is a very popular portrait shot of the much theologised writer Oscar Wilde. I have read him too little, to judge but nevertheless, I simply adore this sepia tainted, time lorn picture of him. I love to watch him just sit there in his fur cloak and the handsome cane an look right back at you. Yes, I admit I have a secret crush on him (which I suppose isn't a secret anymore!

For the love of Retro. Stay away from her. An advert from the war times asking men to 'save' themselves from the wrath of the hookers. Of course, someone with STD is one less soldier on the battlefield, so I can understand the intentions of this ad. But, something about it is very twisted and disturbing and its not just one thing that I can't place my finger on. Besides, I feel extremely sorry for that model. This definitely wasn't a highlight in her career/resume. For The Love Of Retro. I also write @.

For the love of Retro. We'll burn your fat. These are a few advertisement from World War II, urging housewives to save cooking fat and turning them in for the use of the American troops during war.
