Hoboken Retro Ads- Baldness in 1957


This is a continuation of the 1957 Reto Ad series. This add for The Thomas Scalp Specialists shows how male baldness was handled over 50 years ago before the infomercials and Sy Sperling and his Hairclub for Men. I wonder if this guy giving the finger in the ad was also not only a client but the President of The Thomas Scalp Specialists. Nice rug! Finally an ad from 1957 that doesn't focus on women's domestic roles. ◦
