Kids stealing vegetables. How the world has changed.  ??)

We used to swipe tomato's and throw them at the buses from the visiting teams as they were leaving town.

We'd be under the bleachers, smoking.

I remember everyone of these advertisements from comics when I was a kid. Funny to see what they actually were.

I remember all of those, too! Some I had forgotten but remembered when I skimmed the site. Thanks so much for sharing that, Moogmodule! I can't wait to go back and read it in more detail.

One thing I was always curious about was those "tabs" you put on the end of a lit cigarette that would (allegedly) generate a blizzard. I remember one line of the advertisement reading "watch everyone run for their sleds!" As a child that always fascinated me.

That sea monkey ad really was creepy! My daughter used to feed brine shrimp to her fish. They didn't have faces or wear crowns like that though.
