My recent post of the pic of the loving couple wearing trakky daks reminded Pil of this marvellous contribution to advertising art that she’s been keeping from me for all this time. Be sure to click on the image to get a more detailed view.
I have little to say that improves in any way on the copy, which I reproduce here for your enjoyment:
One Easy Piece.
Because one is enough, when it’s you. Show where you’re headed in the ultimate fashion climax.
Fits so tight it shows all you’ve got… you’re a walking turn-on. And treats your body as well as she does.
Easy on, easy off, quick as a flick of her tongue. Sexy cool crinkle cloth for those hot nights to come. Designed with your desires in mind… she’ll eat you alive in it.
The Big Zip in 50% polyester/50% cotton. Long-sleeved in rust, blue or black. Short-sleeved in natural, blue or camel.
Are you man enough to fill it?
$45.
I can only voice my regret that they didn’t show the guy sporting the short-sleeved version in camel.
Gideon Sundback, we salute you!.
“How come I always get to be the tennis bitch?“
In the 70s we dreamed of the zipless fuck. If only we’d known …
“How come I always get to be the tennis bitch?“
Now that’s more like it! Baby.
Are you stalking me? Where are you getting all these pictures of Malach?
Even with that, uh, “stirring” copy and the great photo, the suit just wouldn’t have its full effect without that great hoop-top to the zipper.
“Fashion climax”??? I’ll bet the writer was really proud of that.
Somehow I think “being eaten alive” is probably a better fate than, and thus a better advertising strategy, than “someday your kids will see pictures of this.”
why did these ever go out of style? and wtf is “crinkle cloth”?
jmf: That’s just disturbing. So disturbing.
Cissy Strutt: Despite all the hyperbole, my intuition is that this guy has spent his readies on the fuckless zip.
Universal Head: In your (disturbing) dreams.
Malach: I’d believe you if the suit was made of rubber.
Colonel: That was the writer’s career climax.
Casey: I don’t think our bearded groover was pencilling kids into the picture.
TMock: Why did these ever come into style is a better question. And ‘crinkle cloth’ is just cloth you didn’t iron. Who has time for that with all that unzipping?
The ad copy reminds me of spam email content.
Hmm…
Jam: You’re right! So that’s where our ad copywriter has ended up after all these years!
Oh my. I haven’t been by in a while, and just look at what I’ve missed!
Are you man enough to fill it?!?! Well, it seems clear the model wasn’t.
I’ll bet he gets chest hairs caught in the zipper All The Time!
Feel free to use him for Beefcake Friday. I know you want to.
