Vintage Ad

Here a project I did that reminds us of our past. It makes me laugh because I don't remember this era in history but it just this ad that I've copied just seems absurd to me. Looking at this gives me hope for the things we're fighting for now. When woman were fighting for their rights, I'm positive people looked at their cause and were less than hopeful that they would accomplish anything. Now my generation is hardly aware that we were ever like this.

Here's the ad. It's for a typewriter marketed to secretaries claiming it wouldn't chip their nails. See if you can spot all the instances of sexism! The first ad is the original, the second is my recreation.
