Vintage Ads

First one is my contest entry.

The one behind the cut is from 2006 so too recent to be a contest entry, but I wanted something a bit scandalous.

This first ad is both beautifully minimalist, with black and white pen art and lots of white space, and very odd - Maytag paying their respects to farmers.

This second one is just cute, and unlike other Pabst ads of that year, it is not drawn, but modeled.  Unintentional farmer motif in both, I swear.
