When Advertising Tried Harder: VW bus ad from 1968.

(click, via)
So simple. So smart. DDB, of course. Wonder if VW got a C&D letter from DC Comics?
Previous retro VW ads:
• smart & sexist.
• just sexist.
• brilliant Apollo 11 ad.

    the superwagon WAS a big deal back then.

    vw had some great ads, sort of self deprecating while emphasizing the coolness of having a vee dub.
