Print ones I mean. Good collection here, that would not be allowed on medical, sexual and racial grounds in todays society, rightfully so in most cases.

I especially liked
"blow in her face and she'll follow you anywhere"
And there was me thinking they were savages.
some pretty good ideas mixed in amongst those actually .

I think that shows we had a superb outlook on all things in those days, even if we did not know it. A briliant skit on colonialism and imperialism.
Ask Rudolph Walker and Nina Baden-Semper.

That's just wrong
The first advert I remember being banned was for either oranges or grapefruit, and the picture was quite a young child, not a baby, a bit more than a toddler (in my memory) and the caption was "The juicy ones are best".
To me and my family, in our innocence, it didn't really mean anything at all except, perhaps, small child bouncing with health = healthy fruit bouncing with health. Then the do-gooders explained why it was offensive, and that was the end of innocence......

I remember that ad from when I was young.
"I'll be your dog... I'll be your dog.."
