Awesome Vintage Legal Ad “The Book”
In a perfect world, I would definitely read this book to my future children. I mean, there is no better story for bedtime than one titled “The Story of an Accident Victim.” Evidently, in 1989, fear tactics weren’t even invented. This story is so tame, that it almost could pass off as a child’s story book. Come [...]
Awesome Vintage Legal Ad – “Grocery Store Fall”
This week is kind of a continuation from last week’s epic delivery slip and fall. This awesomely vintage ad demonizes your local produce clerk into a grossly negligent moster. Dark and evil music escalates the scene until poor Gertrude’s stiletto slips across the wet tile, sending her bag, keys and apple,….. directly to the ground?…. Then, shooting, (literally), [...]
Awesome Vintage Legal Ad – “Delivery”
From our archive of over 2000 legal spots, this is by far the most physically demanding spot I have come across. I give props to any person, even stuntmen, who can do take after take of such a gnarly spill. Granted, I think this delivery driver had it coming.
First, he rolls in driving a 2×2 [...]
Awesome Vintage Legal Ad – “Huntin’”
This is, by far, my favorite AVL that I’ve come across. Maybe growing up in Conifer, CO is the reason I have a soft spot for debauchery and killin’ things. Nothin’ like gettin’ loaded and shootin’ a gun, boy howdy! I tell you what, these boys know how to do it right! Driving their winnebago [...]
Awesome Vintage Legal Ad – “Mr. Mom”
Six years after the release of the motion picture “Mr. Mom” this gem hit airwaves across the country.
Bob’s wife was injured in an accident, forcing him to tend to his two Ginger children and try to tame what appears to be a rocket-propelled toaster oven. Things are so tough for the John Edwards look-a-like, [...]
Awesome Vintage Legal Ad of the Week – “Your Corner”
This week’s gem comes from 1988, three years after A-Ha’s “Take on Me” music video, mind you. We see an effect that can now be re-created with an app on any phone, but at the time, probably took all off 1988 to render. It hurts my brain to think of a time when rendering wasn’t [...]
Awesome Vintage Legal Ad of the Week “Mailbox”
(…may or may not be updated weekly)
In the 1980s, Crosspoint was founded by legendary Denver attorney, Norton Frickey. He pioneered legal and medical broadcast advertising, building a successful agency and post-production facility along the way. Over the years, we’ve produced thousands of spots for lawyers and doctors. Some of it good, some [...]
