This ad for Tangee lipstick and nail polish appeared in the September 1967 issue of "Seventeen" magazine. Of course, this was back in the days when "Seventeen" measured a whopping 13"X10" and didn't even comfortably fit on a teenage girl's lap so everything in the magazine seemed larger than life.
We have two wonderful elements from 60's advertising here: one, the eye-popping color and two, quintessential teenage model Colleen Corby (on the left). Any 60's girl will remember her in a heartbeat. Just looking at this ad gives me psychedelic-tinged warm fuzzies and makes me want to listen to something by Tommy James and the Shondells.
