Maxwell Tape Ad (1980s)

More Iconic commercials from the 1980s

Duracell battery commercial, 1994 🔋

Maxell, not Maxwell :)

A favorite ad from the early 1980s epitomizes the significance of cassette tapes during that time. The visual depiction of loud music is clever and humorous: the audio playing from the tape is so clean and powerful that it blows the listener away. The tilt of the lampshades, the hair and tie flying back, and the hands tightly gripping the chair all convey the impact of the music. Advertising agency Scali McCabe and Sloves created the ad for Maxell in 1980. (Credit goes to photographer, Steve Steigman, art director Lars Anderson and copywriter Peter Levathes.)

We need more car ads like this 😂

Those were the best, I remember I tried many recording music from the radio
