Definitely not a 1960. Btw love this site. In the show Mad Men they also talk about this campaign: Doyle Dane Bernbach campaigns for Volkswagen throughout the 1950s and 1960s were said to have revolutionized advertising. Notable campaigns included the 1959 Think Small series of Volkswagen advertisements, which was voted the No. 1 campaign of all time in Advertising Age’s 1999 The Century of Advertising.[ -- Last edit: 2011-08-08 15:23:18
