ahhh the romance of kitsch!

Exaggerated facial expressions, strong poses, enticing situations, glamorized products. Hello 50's American advertising. I have to admit, I'm kinda a fan of these illustration ads that embody the kitsch look and feel. There is a playful humor that goes with my viewing of these where I actually chuckle to myself and say something like "yeahhhh...right. amazing." So classy, so elegant and sophisticated the men and women are in these. The men usually take the dominant role, usually stirring up a ruckus from the ladies with their well tailored suits, gentleman caps, and sharp utensils. I know I definitely make that joyous face every time my lady and I are outside cooking bacon in a pan over a hot grill on an all american sunday! Does it get any better than this? What a life!
