Digital Download “Swimming Caps” Ad (c.1949) – Instant Download Printable ThirdShift

DESCRIPTION

You’ll have the loveliest hair after the swim!

This digital magazine ad is from the July 1, 1949 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine:

“You can even dive in these new caps without getting your hair stringy – of your new vacation permanent frizzy and disheveled. Turn your head, stretch your next if you want to, even when under water. The soft, pliant rubber stretches with you, keeps the edges practically water-tight. There’s a light, flexible ridge just under the edge – a “water dam” or scientific seal to keep water away from your hair. The beautiful new costume colors compliment your gayest swim suit – the new hairlines and textured effects make it easy to choose the one that’s most becoming to YOU and best for your hairdo.”

This high resolution digital file magazine ad is perfect for printing on paper, creating gift tags, artist trading cards, banners and garlands, greeting cards, pillows, notebooks….we know you are creative and will find lots of uses!

WHY WE LOVE IT

We love the fashion from the 1940s! 

We also enjoy reading the copy in vintage ads – the wording is usually very appropriate for the era, and not the kind of wording you would see in magazine ads of today.

CREATIVE USES

There are many ways you can use digital scans of vintage ads – both in your home decor and for your art projects.

Here are some ideas to get you started:

• Unique Gift Wrap – Download an image and have it printed on large format paper (i.e. 11″x17″) and use the paper as unique gift wrap. You can also print the image on your home printer and use the paper for small gifts.
• Scrapbook Paper – Incorporate the digital image into your artwork, journals, or scrapbooks.
• Gift Cards or Tags – Resize, scale, or crop the images and use them for gift tags, greeting cards, stickers, or placecards. 
• Home Decor – Print a color copy of the ad, frame it and hang it in your home or office.
