Vintage Mid-Century Ladies Home Journal Ad with loads of Hollywood glamour for Lustre-Creme Shampoo. One of the most successful ad campaigns of the fab fifties has to be the long-running Lustre-Creme Shampoo series.
This is one of the rarer images of sultry Swedish siren Anita Ekberg star of Paris Holiday not yet the international sensation she would become after the success of Fellini's spectacular La Dolce Vita. Beautiful images of top stars-
Lustre Creme was the shampoo of choice for a variety of glamour queens such as Elizabeth Taylor, Ava Gardner, Marilyn Monroe, etc etc- this is a stunning portrait of Anita Ekberg- note the arched eyebrows and gorgeously scarlet-lipped mouth with her lovely face caressed by a white fur. This vintage ad is the height of sophisticated European chic for 1958- note the background of orange and green complimenting the glorious caramel and blonde tones of her hair! Ad measures 11 x 14- is suitable for framing or display and will also make an excellent and unusual holiday gift. Will be the prefct touch next to your Eaames chair! Stunning in person condition is bright and clean- just as fabulous now as it was in 1958!
