Weekend Onesie:
It Floats (My Boat)!
Ahh, the gently homoerotic nature of early Ivory soap ads.
Clearly, what they were selling was pure in more than just one way.
Cleanliness is next to something... that's for sure.
So, take a gander at these vintage ads from a more innocent time.
Or? Did they know exactly who they were appealing to?
They certainly 'float' my 'boat'.
In fact, we're at full mast and ready to sail!
Gentle Homoeroticism.
It should be required study for any artist.
But... you're free to draw your own conclusion.

You just know those old Ivory Soap ads helped increase sales among a certain group of men :) Pure Ivory soap with their not so pure illustrated ads, and yet so innocent :)

Thanks for sharing those Ivory adds, some were quite hilarious.
These are neat.
I miss those showers
