c-series don 7,911 #1 Posted March 4, 2019 I just inherited a lot of National Geographic’s and I found a couple of ads in them. I forgot to take pictures of the two that I found. I do remember that they are May of 1960 and May 1967. The 67 ad I have never seen, and I will post a picture of it. My question is does anyone know of any particular issues that I should look for to find more of the ads? I’m not looking to sell the ads to make money and I’ve tried to give away the magazines because I’m not going to keep them. I just don’t want to throw away any good advertising. Unfortunately I’m missing a lot from the 70s that I would like. Thanks for any help. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stepney 2,314 #4 Posted March 4, 2019 Funny thing, I have some 80's Nat Geo. I saved from the dump, and there were a few of the same ads for a Blackhood, but none of the 70's editions had anything WH in them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 7,911 #11 Posted March 5, 2019 I will be back to the place where the National Geographic’s are tomorrow and will take some pictures of the ads. I will post the year and month.

stolmar 35 #12 Posted March 5, 2019 That's too funny. I read your post and got to thinking I had a couple boxes of national geos. i finally got to the rental house basement and found the exact same book as you have. Never seen so many garden tractor adds in my life. It was the only 60's mag I had. Just about all off 72 and 73 and then a few of each year through to 1980 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,365 #13 Posted March 5, 2019 As mentioned, we have a section dedicated to literature, ads, articles, etc. For instance, we have articles posted from Popular Mechanics from the early 70s here: Here are a couple of ads. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHNJ701 4,164 #14 Posted March 5, 2019 the more I look through these magazines it's interesting marketing type of advertising in the 60's nat geo. it's definitely targeted for older affluent people, numerous ads for boats and airplanes. the car ads are the family luxury cars, and home ownership ads, the garden tractors, high end cameras and technology ads. obviously lots of travel advertising. not one ad for any 60's muscle cars? was hoping to see a cool mustang ad or something, I think I will take a few pics of the interesting ads and box them back up and stuff them in the corner of the attic for my kids to find someday 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
