Lucky Tiger Hair Tonic (1950s)

This horrible ad was released by Lucky Tiger Hair Tonic during the 1950’s, and it promised that any man using their product would be the one that “gets the gals.” The worst part of the ad is the inclusion of women’s heads as hunting prizes and the tiger being personified as the hunter. It’s just all around very bad.

Tart-Chestnut Co (1930s)

Back in the 1930’s, the name of this Tart Chestnut Company product was not controversial, so it shows just how much can change over the course of a century. The name “Big Tits” is in reference to the Titus Tart chip company’s nickname.
