What is being sold in these vintage ads?
Flipping through old magazines is a time machine. The articles are fascinating, for sure, but the advertisements are just as interesting in hindsight. In fact, the ads might be a better capsule of the time.
The following products were all featured in LIFE Magazine in 1966. Some of them lasted for decades — and even might be around today.
