When's that from - 66/67? Not a progressive time in terms of representation of women. 'The woman as nympho driven mad by a pair of sta-prest trousers' - now if this isn't a male fantasy construction then I don't know what is...

Certainly 60s... t'was the time of Sex sells advertising.
50s ads are more about a careerist/ aspirational selling point, about fitting in with the other businessmen.

Thanks Hank - great photos! On a side note, that last pic reminds me to keep searching for a nice glass martini pitcher. Thus far I've been using my old steel shaker, although I'm a stirrer not a shaker...

The Look continues his Ivy mission, quietly without verbosity, seeking out the wisdom and sacred texts where others spout egotistical dandy crap.

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.
I'm glad I have insomnia after all! Now I can be the first to welcome you. You'll find a good number of people here, me included, desperate to know how Ivy is in Japan. Welcome!
