The Museum of the Moving Image hosted a super fun exhibit on the work on Jim Henson. I especially like the footage of the his early commercial work, like Mr. Linit (below):

transit museum: advertisments

The main attraction of the Transit Museum were the old subway cars complete with advertisements from their particular era. I went a little crazy with the photos but the ads are too great not to. I mean, "84 out of 100 women prefer men who wear hats"?

Have you ever been to the Transit Museum? Its easily now become one of my favorite museums in NYC - totally fascinating and so much to see! We took the free guided tour (let by a subway conductor) which I highly recommend. The museum is located in Brooklyn's Court Street station (which is no longer used) and features all the different styles of cars used throughout the years.

The graphic design alone is worth a visit - stay tuned for another post on the advertisements.

Oh - and there is a pretty funny interview with Isaiah Mustafa (aka the Old Spice Guy) on NPR. Click here to listen and here for a bevy of You Tube videos where he personally thanks individual fans. Hilarious!

Man! I love these hilarious Old Spice commercials. Have a nice weekend!
