What a great concept, the penguin keeping both donkey (democrat) & elephant (republican) cool headed during election - very timely post Ted
Hi, Jenni.....yes the ad's creators really hit a home run with this one ! And it is truly timely for these times !!!! Thanks for your input on this !!!
Ted_Straub, Cool. Um, I mean Kool. };-)
It's 'funny' how Google Lens works on different operating system platforms.
Yesterday, I used it on my smart phone, and it turned up two twins, one with a specific cite for a month and year and a particular magazine.
Today on my Windows box, it turned up one of those same twins, and another from the Smithsonian:

So, circa 1935-1936. A successful Great Depression ad campaign.
Probably the average U.S. consumer had no idea that they were on the brink of another world war. :-(
Whoops, I should have said, "near twins." Same basic imagery, slightly different wording.
Hi, Keramikos......thanks for your re3search and input....it is appreciated and illuminating.
