LIFE Magazine knew that its readers were its customers and the key to their subscription and advertising revenue. This 1965 ad for LIFE itself illustrates the attention that management paid to gaining and retaining subscribers. Upon order, this advertisement will be painstakingly extracted from the original edition in which it appears and carefully framed and packaged for delivery.
This LIFE ad makes a simple pitch: for the cost of a bus ride, each edition of LIFE Magazine will take you around the world! This is an exceptionally effective "value for money" pitch. Check out the old-school bus coin receptacle. Remember those?
This ad will look amazing in any home, an office, dormitory -- or in your bathroom! Since the ad is the original from an authentic and rare LIFE Magazine, you can rest assured of its unique value! This is a perfect birthday, holiday, Father’s Day or Mother’s Day gift! Personalize this gift by including a certificate of authenticity with your special message.
The LIFE Magazine ad itself measures approximately 10.5″ x 13.5″ and it surrounded by a white professional framing mat cut to this ad’s specifications. The total area of the advertisement and the mat measures 15.75” x 19.7” and looks fantastic. The handsome and contemporary dark-brown frame itself is a high-quality medium-density fiberboard (MDF) with shatterproof plexiglass.
