Oh, now, Dr Freud himself would say “Sometimes a lipstick is just a lipstick.”

Nothing subliminal about this one. Just downright sexually suggestive.

I saw some stuff that was clearly subliminal advertising in the old days: “Why is the woman strategically holding a lemon over her breast?” “Gee, that arrangement of the French bread and canteloupe in the bag is kind of suggestive, isn’t it?” But the CLAM-PLATE ORGY stuff was overblown. I keep looking for subliminal stuff in ads but if it’s there any more it’s subtle. Cheers — MrG / http://gvgpd.proboards.com

Looking at the ’54 cover, when women appeared to have the same dimensions as a lot of car bumpers of the same era, also reminds me of what a sweet and inocent time it was. “You’ll poke yer eye out,kid!”

But I thought subliminal advertising was bunk!
