As evidenced in these mid-last-century
magazine advertisements, Sylvania Electric marketing moguls learned early what sells
products by exploiting the nature of their audience. The cartoon-style ads shown
here appeared in social publications like
Look, Life, and Collier's, where both men and women - many of them numbnuts
- were the expected audience. Compare these with the type of cartoon ads run by Sylvania
in "serious" magazines like
Radio-Craft. Of course when you consider some of the
other comics
printed in the same "serious" magazines, you could excuse Sylvania if they ran
those social magazine ads here.

Sylvania ads especially prepared to boost your service are telling 15,500,000

of which are reproduced above. They tell them to stop at the Sylvania sign of dependable
service ... for the best radio and television repairs at the fairest prices!
Hundreds of these readers are your potential customers. These humorous ads, running
in the cream of the nation's publications, help assure you a steady stream of new
customers and greater profit.
