A coworker of mine was sifting through this Flickr collection earlier this week. I noticed some really interesting images flashing across his screen and inquired as to what he was looking at and he said someone had emailed him a link to this really interesting collection of 1950′s through 70′s advertising.
The account claims that you can find Posters, Magazine Advertisements, Brochures, Booklets, Publishing, Calendars, Greeting Cards, Packaging, Logotypes, Trade-Marks, Letterheads, Exhibitions, Show-windows… Graphic design, illustrations and printed artwork in general all from the the 50′s and 60′s era. It’s an interesting study in design and there is definitely a bit of inspiration to be found.

Yeah, that Bush and his 1950′s to 1970′s advertising. Boy, I swear I will never forgive him for that.
