Vintage Newspaper Ads

In Entertainment, Fun by Flat Five Media

Recently, I’ve been doing some research in old newspapers for some projects, including my family tree (so much fun!), and I’m been going to old newspapers to find articles and sources. And you know what I’m noticing more than anything else? The advertising. Here are a few of my favorite vintage ads that I’ve come across this week.
