Great post! The Superbowl is always such a huge event - once I stayed up late in London to watch it with friends at a sports bar. And I agree with you on the seemingly lost art of advertising. Thanks for sharing those examples from the golden age - amazing to see Concorde!! Let's hope we move back to thoughtful, evocative and witty ads like these. I could see it working well for the new overnight train travel services across Europe, for example.
A few travel brands I have enjoyed in terms of advertising, British Airways, Emirates (especially across social), and Airbnb…
My father pines for Pan Am. Attractive stewardesses who would give you a mini-pack of smokes for the flight. Why is advertising so ugly now?

Thanks for your comment Claire. The Super Bowl in the middle of the night at a London pub sounds like quite the memory. Happy travels.
