Further Details
“You just had to laugh at all this magazine advertising. It was so strange. What was Madison Avenue doing? It was on another planet. Most advertising is based on getting your attention by juxtaposing things that don’t belong together. Advertising uses a crude form of surrealism to get your attention.”
