One of my pet peeves is political correctness. It's the scourge of the planet. It inhibits thought, free speech, and honest discourse. I'm fighting back by forming this group to collect all the posts that might be considered offensive today but ruffled few feathers when they were originally made. You know the type of stuff I mean: cigarette ads, sexist commercials, etc.

1940 Corn Flakes ad Even cereal advertising could be sexist! Check out this 1940 newspaper ad for Kellogg's Corn Flakes: Hubby heaps praise on wife for being smart enough to feed the kids something they actually like at breakfast time. Yep, she's a keeper!

Beaver Lamb and Wombat coats The animal rights crowd won't like this 1929 ad. A wombat coat? Sounds weird, but what a deal! You save $14.

Folgers Coffee Commercial Here's one of those old-style coffee commercials that wouldn't fly today. Macho-jerk husband criticizes his pretty wife's coffee-making skills. The solution is to switch to Folgers, of course. Now 'sir' is a happy macho-jerk and the pretty wife is once again in his good graces.

Over the Counter Heroin You can't make this stuff up! From 1898 to 1910 you could legally buy heroin over the counter from your local druggist. It was marketed as a non-addictive morphine substitute and a cough medicine for children!
