Random Retro Vintage Ads: now on Instagram

This is Dickie. Dickie has an important announcement to make, before his giant horseshoe topples and gives him a career-ending concussion.

I have piles of Random Retro stuff. Some of y’all seem to enjoy it. I haven’t been posting much lately, because I’m still in the Cave of Eternal Revision (we thought we’d found a way to tunnel out, but the passage led straight to the Nook of Every Word Must Be Perfect, where self-doubt and excellent vodka are served on the hour).

Anyway, I’m a naughty blog-slacker, but I wanted to preserve the Random Retro posts in the meantime.

Not like that. No.

 

I’m moving most of my Random Retros to Instagram, where I’ll be posting a new one every day (or almost every day. I’ve learned not to make promises–especially from the Cave, where moods are tenuous and the oxygen situation is dicey). So if you have a special liking for vintage ads and pop culture from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. . .

. . .And you really, REALLY need to know where to send that 25-year-old fan letter to Chad Allen. . .

. . .come on over and join me on Instagram (jclillis). Give me your companionship, and I will give you wet girls in pink barrels outfitted with custom dream-phones:

Come, let us snicker at tragic fashions and calcified social mores, the better to distract ourselves from our own encroaching mortality. (Also: possible argyle sock porn, and that time my kid spelled BOOBS on her calculator.)

Let’s play!
