"QUANTUM SHOT" #354link
Creative Masterpieces of Commercialism
It would be simply impossible to list or even mention all of the great ads that appeared since our last issue. We're sure you've seen some of them already in the running campaigns, and perhaps even succumbed to their appeal and reached for the wallet. For this is what they are: creative masterpieces designed to part you and your money.
As always, this next installment in our highly popular series covers print, urban, and viral advertisements, chosen for originality and lasting impression. Click to enlarge images.
