    Thanks Travlinguy,

    Speaking of Memory lane I was taking a look at the coca cola adverts

    I love following one brand and seeing what types of copywriting and marketing techniques they used.

    In the 1940's the did a lot of JV marketing with suppliers/companies and they successfully made their product synonymous with the everyday moments of life. Very clever indeed.

        It'd be even better if they had search options for era or decade as well.

        Would you be kind enough to share one from 1600s -that is if you have it at hand?
        I am very curious.

    haha... nice one David.

    If the elf was winking then it would almost be as good as the mechanical Santa that winks and also has the same finger movement as the elf above and gets erected every year in Downtown Auckland (and has done for the last 50 odd years).

    They don't let him wink or move his finger anymore...
