ALL-AMERICAN ADS: 80'S
Edited by Jim Heimann.
Assembled here is a superb collection of vivid, memorable ads--over 600 images--portraying a nation full of self-confidence, bravado, and a "Just Do It" mentality.
With the cold war ebbing, crime and inflation at record levels, and movie star-turned-President Ronald Reagan launching a Star Wars of his own, the 1980s did not seem likely to become one of the most outrageous, flamboyant, and prosperous decades of the 20th century. Yet, thanks to the "greed is good" mantra on Wall Street, the power-dressing, exercise-obsessed "Me Generation" of Yuppies--high on cash, cocaine, and Calvins--ruled the day. Another fine piece of cultural archaeology.
