Advertising is something brands, labels, people, and businesses have done for hundreds of years, but it has evolved over the years. The world is covered in advertisements for just about anything and everything; there are not many ad-free spaces left anymore. They can be found on billboards, screens, in magazines, and anywhere else with empty space.

Back then, there were no digital ads; of course, all ads were seen on paper. The ads themselves featured illustrations and images that just scream old-school. A lack of technology meant these ads had a certain vibe to them that anyone could pick out. Vintage ads are interesting, and sometimes kind of surprising.

It's neat to go back and compare the world of advertising back then to how it is now. Here we have collected 26 ads from many different companies that were probably pretty revolutionary for their time. These ads showcase the lifestyle of the past.
