Last month’s invitee to the Isspecial Cutting Chai – The Comic Project houses not only an enviable and ever-increasing archive of comics – mostly from the Indrajal era. Housed between the pages of those comic books are wonderful examples of vintage Indian print advertising which evoke that welcome whiff of nostalgia. I scrounged through the entire Comic Project archives for these ads. Here’s the first batch of the many to come. Thanks again TCP.

I remember Gold Spot and the factory near Andheri, but none of these adds.funnily enough, I am still smiling.
