Coats & Clark ad 1960s thread advertisement

Tranquilizer

From the back of my 1966 McCall’s Home Catalog:

Tranquilizer Coats & Clark ad 1960s thread advertisement
Comes in 178 tranquilizing colours.

Where to begin with this ad…

I’ll be back next week with photos from my 1920s Halloween sewing blitz!

      Thanks! It’s so much less wholesome than one expects from sewing advertising..

    Hello! I really really adore your blog, which I’ve recently stumbled upon.
    Well, I guess I not only adore the blog, but the gorgeous clothes you sew!

    But I also have a completely different question, and I hope it is not to cheeky: Could I copy this picture of the ad and use it in my blog? I really really like it.

    I would appreciate an answer, if you have time to spare.

    Thanks,

    frifris.

      Thank you so much! I don’t mind if you re-post any of my scans—please just credit my blog and link back to the original post. Thanks!
