Cool Ads we Placed back in 1990

 

 

 

One of our regulars, Bill Johnson, revealed himself to be in the advertising business. He wanted to use Comic College as the advertiser for a campaign he was already thinking of creating and entering into some sort of competition. It would be legit as long as I placed the ads and paid for them myself. He did get me a freebie with a HUGE poster in a bus stop, which I  got to keep when it was done, but the main campaign had to be in print. So we place 5 ads in the Minnesota Daily (University of Minnesota) and then made 2 different sized posters of each one for displaying at conventions, in the store and the one bus stop giant.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I cannot locate any of the posters as of this writing, but I found 3 issues of the Daily and scanned them in all their faded glory. If you watch our banner slide show, you  can see the line of text along the bottom of each ad up close. Enjoy.
