I was tickled to find this Pepsi ad, More Bounce to the Ounce from 1951. Isn't it fun? And to add more interest, I spy the Gilded Lily swimsuit from Cole of California represented in the ad. Wondering if Cole had a relationship with Pepsi, anyone know?

And then to top it off I found another color wave, in the same suit. How cool is that?
And the gorgeous Janet Leigh in the same suit. Hubba hubba. Happy Thursday all!

Great, as always! I nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award - hope you like it! :) http://weheartvintage.co/2012/03/05/versatile-blogger-award/
Surprising take on this Pepsi ad. I now look at my own collection of ads with a "fresh view" and have already discovered a Tina Leser swimsuit in a 1947 Oldsmobile ad. I'll be happy to send you a scan if you leave me your email address (can't add pictures to this comment).
