I just love old comic ads don't you? Some of favorites have always been when heroes save the day with Hostess cakes.

Hostess Ads

Remember back in the late 70's and early 80's when the comics used to have hostess ads in them?  It was not only an ad, but a mini-story starring your favorite heroes or villains.  Well, I used to read mine over and over.  There was just something about them that made them entertaining.  Well, thanks to blogs like Branded in the 80's and other cool sites, I have found some really good ads that I want to share.  So, I am going to try to display an add once a week or every two weeks from now on so that you, my readers, can enjoy this treasures in the world of comic advertising.  I haven't figured out the title for this section yet. Maybe you can help with that. Anyway, enjoy the ads, I know I will! :)




Oh yeah, Happy Thorsday!
