If only I could write ad copy as civilized and effective as this Coca-Cola Vintage Advertising. Every possible benefit and target market is covered in only 50 words, with key terms emphasized by typographic treatment. If this doesn’t push one of your psychological hot buttons, nothing will. Of course you must make allowances for the English usage of the period. And in case you did not know, Wheelmen were early bicyclists who fought for paved roads before commonplace automobiles were a twinkle in Henry Ford’s eye. I first thought this a large broadside or in-store advertising poster, but fine print says “Cut This Out at Dotted Lines.” All the more a wonder that this might have originally been the size of a business card or even postage stamp. Every promise on this promotion was probably true back in the early days when original formulations of Coca-Cola actually contained drug-like ingredients. No weary or despondent users of this product, no sir!
