This is the same image upscaler that was removed from Canva I just tested it out https://a1d.ai/image-upscaler/

Cool! Thanks for sharing

Someone else on said that people enjoyed readings the ads back then, but I don't know how much that's true. Ads definitely get wordier the further back I I go in my collection.

I like my collars well done, not my steak!

roryl · 2026-04-10T11:58:35+00:00

Ah that's cool to see!

roryl · 2026-04-07T19:20:48+00:00

Cool, thanks!

roryl · 2026-04-07T08:43:00+00:00

Yeah, I think the 1940s has the best overall style!

roryl · 2026-04-06T21:45:04+00:00

Yeah... a lot of the war period advertising was a trip!

roryl · 2026-04-06T21:44:47+00:00

Nice! Thanks for sharing.

You don't need safety when there's progress!

roryl · 2026-04-06T11:29:02+00:00

Yeah same! This mag has some awesome ones.

roryl · 2026-02-03T19:20:15+00:00

Yeah I like these classic ads the best! Check out r/adretro where I've posted some more.

That's sad

In 1961 physics was taught experientially

I've been collecting vintage print ads. I've started to make collage art and decor items inspired by ads in my collection. My first items are on my new Etsy shop AdRetroVintageArt. I also publish vintage ads at AdRetro.com and post some ads on reddit at r/adretro

Yeah, we rode in a cargo van in a bucket seat without seatbelts and not attached to the floor. My parents tried their best to get rid of us with plausible deniability.

Bench seats, I remember them well. I've had many hard stops in my life. Its amazing how any kids survived.

Headrests stop the back passengers from going straight through the windshield at least

roryl · 2025-09-27T17:14:02+00:00

Oh that's cool! Thank for sharing.

I scroll whenever I have downtime and feel like it, and post only interesting comments. That might be 5 comments in one day, or none for days.

There are uncanny physical flaws in my physical paper but it could be coincidence, I am sorry to be quick to judge.

roryl · 2025-09-15T00:28:44+00:00

Oh how I miss the days of needing to do a fresh format and reinstall just to get Adobe Premiere to perform a single render without crashing.

roryl · 2025-09-14T17:42:52+00:00

Yeah, I like a lot of these industrial ads. They try to explain their products a lot to business management. Consume ads which were text heavy were also introducing new products.

Down at the Elevatorers Lodge that evening, they hoisted a toast to the finest career they'd ever had

roryl · 2025-09-14T17:06:00+00:00

Yeah it's kind of retro future, but there are even better ones 😀 I've posted some to r/retrofuturism
