Vintage ads are awesome. We really can learn a lot from them. Colors, typography, the way the designers and artists found ways to overcome the lack of technology to produce some really amazing pieces.

In this post we will feature some Vintage Ads sent to us by Enzo Gravante, a collector who has a huge collection of ads dating from 1900 to 1980 for a wide variety of categories. We will show you some from very famous Italian artists such as Gino Boccasile, Mario Puppo, Luigi Veronesi, Marcello Dudovich, Al Moore, and many others.

I'm a collector since about 20 years, and I have of all categories (cars, watches, pens, pencil, cigarettes, cigars, jewelry, dressing and accessories, shoes, touristic country, medicines, cosmetics, parfums, cartoons, toys, interior design, benzine gasoline, motors, motocycles, bikes, food & beverage, postcards, lighters, pipes and accessories, typewriters, calculators, photo machines, field glasses, films, sports, covers of magazines with actor and actress, and a lot of original document about very important persons of culture) - from 1900 to 1980 - many of those are very rares and many designed (with signature) of very famous grahics (Gino Boccasile, Mario Puppo, Luigi Veronesi, Marcello Dudovich, Al Moore, and many others)
