Butlin's Continental Holidays
This intriguingly basic Butlins ad is all talk.
This Butlins commercial is all talk: words on the soundtrack and the screen but no pictorial content whatsoever. Sometimes, the basics are all you need.
The Open Road
Whether you're going by road, rail, air or sea, this collection of screen ads doesn't just get you from A to B, it offers a road map to an A-Z of desirable destinations.
Throughout the 20th century, screen advertising helped transform the car from luxury conveyance for the wealthy to essential commodity, 'hand-built by robots'. It saw out the last days of steam, and made 'the age of the train'. And it presented travel - at home or abroad - as a route to a better life.
