    Just in time for beach season this Spring/Summer! Sea & Ski used to be the top selling lotion in the US. I believe this ad is from 1971. There are a total of 12 pieces with the top 8 of them being 68 x 50 and the other four being a little bit smaller. I only put pictures up of about half of it due to its size. The first picture and the second one would be placed adjacent to one another to begin the process of putting together the complete ad. The last picture shows how all the different pieces to make the ad whole. I do have all 12 sections to complete it.

    Here is a link below about the history of the company and an ad it had from the 1960's. Apparently Glen Campbell is singing in it before he became more famous.

      Here is a little bit of history about the company and an ad by them from the 1960's at the link below. I guess Glen Campbell is singing in it before he became more famous.

      Cool ad, I have one similar from the 80's when indoor tanning hit the market. If we could get this rain to stop, we may have a good spring. Lol
