Apple advertising, 30 years ago
Talking of Apple, I made a fun discovery on the way home from Like Minds last week. I stopped off at my mother-in-law’s, and helped her sort through some old family stuff. Amongst the various bits of memorabilia were these two souvenir magazines from 1981:

And in the Telegraph magazine was the most wonderful advert. It was an Apple advert, for the Apple II in the pre-Macintosh days:

Not exactly a model of the modern, minimal Apple ad, is it?
