1966—The Gnarmax-iest Anti-Smoking Ad Ever.


(click ad, via) How did Dave go from boardless Hodad to Mondo wave carver? He quit burning up his pocket money on cigarettes, duuude. Check out the oh-so-dated savings amounts in the last frame. More importantly, check out the ASS on his new Nectar, something the board-fixated smoking hodads completely ignored. LOOK AT IT (Thanks to Riptionary™ for surfer slang help. Illustrations by Frank Frazetta). Previous retro anti-smoking ads: Fabio sez lips are made for kissing not smoking. Previously in: anti-smoking ads.

I have to say, if I were between 16-25 in 1966, and looked that, it might just have made me kick the habit.

When he said he "never got winded now" he was alluding to the fact that he could enjoy long sessions of intercourse with his current sexual partner, correct?

Best way to tell it's from the 60's? No cameltoe.

Funny, the style looks more like Bernie Wrightson than Frazetta to me...

They'd do well to stop saying "do well to" so many damn times.
