How to Print a Book
This is amazing:
How to print a book, with type setters, wax, copper plates, lots of blades and glue and people. Also, why don’t they seem to make videos like this anymore? I love any car ad that shows the robots on the factory floor. Why not make videos showing how cars are made, or [...]

When Men Were Men, Women Were Women, and Cigarettes Advertised On Children’s Cartoons
RC2 found this Flinstones-sponsored-by-Wilson Cigarettes ad, calling it “truly edgy”:

John Locke Tutorial:
I love that man. Even his accent makes me happy. It’s sort of old-timey nice-guy. A midwestern thing, probably, which makes sense since apparently he’s from Michigan.
