Is it wrong that I totally get a creepy sexual vibe from this innocent picture from 1978? Have I just become so jaded that I can't look at kids admiring a phallus rocket and not chuckle like a depraved moron? Tell me I'm not alone.
Here's a few more "innocent" photos that awaken my inner-degenerate.,,,
Picturing People by Don Nibbelink, 1976
Not alone at all. It's still hard to beat (ba-dupp kshshs!) the Chiquita banana ad from a previous TI.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I loved "In the News", especially their music. Christopher Glenn's voice was also kinda entrancing. I wonder if there's enough back story or trivia about that series to make a post for you.
Hammer n' Sickle? Is this a dig at the arms race during the cold war? My hunch is that's Suzy Parker in the RC Cola ad.
ReplyDeleteYawn. No, you're not alone, like 99.99% of everybody, you see a rocket as a penis, a balloon as a boob, blah blah. I had a Saturn V rocket model as a kid in the '70s and that never entered my mind at all – Ha! I was so stupid back then. Everyone's so much brighter now.
ReplyDeleteSorry Gilligan, but sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
