Along with everything else, the world of advertising has changed a ton throughout the decades. Advertising is something brands, labels, people, and businesses have done for many years now. The world is covered in advertisements for just about anything and everything, there are not many ad-free spaces left anymore. Magazines, buses, billboards, and all screens are covered in ads for just about anything and everything.

Back then, there were no digital ads; of course, all ads were seen on paper, in magazines, or up in windows. The ads themselves featured illustrations and images that just scream old-school. The prices, funky fashion, and hand-drawn illustrations are just some key elements of an old-school, vintage ad.

It's neat to go back and compare the world of advertising back then to how it is now. Here we have collected 25 ads from many different companies that were probably pretty revolutionary for their time. These ads showcase the lifestyle of the past.
