Furthermore, the illustrations in old adverts were absolutely amazing. Just look at today's vast majority of the works - half-baked, traced in illustrator and even then not as refined and charming, full of frivolous colors and complete lack of mastery in drawing (if they ever learned attempted it). We've regressed so much, it makes me upset. There are a few gems out there though. Advertisement, marketing, business ethics, customer centricity, etc. have eroded in favor of high thrift, low margin disposable products we buy today. The other day I was searching for a water pick machine. Amazon search returned a plastic palace worth of shit, each one competing for attention and none of the brands I've ever heard of. Every brand was some engrish name with spelling mistakes, definite chinese knockoff. Good honest businesses are a rarity these days.
