Today I am looking at perfumes advertised around Christmas in the UK in the #1980s. Loving the names: Atkinson Indolence, Faberge Babe, Faberge Touch of Class, Hartnell In Love, Paco Rabanne Metal, Revlon Intimate, Yardley Laughter. Will these grace any stockings or his year?

Caught the tail end of a piece featuring @arusbridger.bsky.social on Radio 4 #Today programme this morning discussing media literacy. Seemed to suggest a response to @ofcom.bsky.social report? Anyone know anything further/more specific?

December 1983 presents Berol DoodleArt! What a great joy these presented, often so vast in scale they had to be done on the floor, meaning the best Axminster got touched up as well. A merry #Christmas all round!

Absolute classic @johnlewisretail.bsky.social #Christmas ad this year speaking to the ethos of 'decent consumerism' & 'decontaminating' (profane) products into sacred objects. See me after class to discuss further www.johnlewis.com/content/chri...

Today’s offering, whether you want it or not, is a great press ad from Lego. Dating to November 1980, this was, in part, a reaction to the rise of electronic/digital toys.

The wonderful Fisher-Price here offer their printing set of 1982. Yes, that ink will get everywhere with random letters appearing on your soft furnishings.

I am an emigre from that other place and figured I ought to make an effort to appear “attractive”. The best I can offer is British #Christmas press #advertising of the #1980s. Stay tuned…
