When Mad Men ruled, and mad women got beaten (says so in one of the ads).
Moore Business Forms
1952 ad.
The "Bell" was worn by the least efficient gal in the typing pool, week-to-week. This is Debbie during week #14 in a row.
Ivory
1968 Ivory campaign pulls no punches and punches women right in their ever-aging faces.
Unbelievably horrible guilt trip laid on the ladies.

Heinz (read the copy)
1949 ad for Heinz soups, back when men had only two worries: Communism and Dinner.
"Well he's bored with my conversation and cooking.
But if I cook better, he might again start to notice how fucking boring I am.
And the beatings might return.
Oh, shoot — OK, Heinz, I'll give a try!"

Cutex
1964 Cutex lipstick ad.
