Radio Shack (1970s)
Radio Shack used to be at the top of its game when it came to home electronics, but those days are long gone. Giant stores like Best Buy and Walmart have completely obliterated Radio Shack, which has gone through bankruptcy several times in attempts to save its floundering brand as of late.
McDonalds (1970s)
This was most likely another attempt at being more inclusive, and it was likely okay to post as an ad like this in the 1970’s. McDonald’s tried to use language in a way to appeal to African American customers, but looking at it today feels like they’re relying on harmful stereotypes rather than being inclusive.
