I grew up, more or less during the early 60's. So, I saw the last remnants of these type adds in places like hardware stores and Sears as well as some toy stores. I love these adds allot. They remind me of a time of innocence. Between trains and fire engines I was a typical kid with a love affair for both.

I voraciously read the newspaper, comics first, from a very early age ((when in about

the fifth grade or earlier, and when teachers passed out the thick "reader", I would take it home, read it through the first night, and the teachers learned to let me sit in the back of the room and draw (I remember Christmas scenes) on the blackboard with colored chalk, while the rest of the kids were laboring through learning to read)).  But I don't remember seeing newspaper ads...BUT there were Western Auto and Sears catalogs, with lots of Marx!  (most of which I did not come to own in that period)
