From America, Nov 1977: XL 400S Sound Movie Camera ad from Sankyo (+Kodak Sound Film Cartridge and Boom Microphone) «Catch Your Wife Cheating. Sankyo makes it easy.»

A vintage advertisement for Sankyo's XL 400S sound movie camera. It shows a woman in rollers eating cake from the refrigerator. Text humorously suggests using the camera to catch her cheating on her diet. It highlights the camera's easy-to-use features, quality sound recording, and clear picture quality.

Catch Your Wife Cheating. Sankyo makes it easy.

Alice insisted she wasn't cheating on her diet. Then late one night I heard noises in the kitchen. Figured it might be a good time to see if my new
Sankyo sound movie camera really was as easy to use as the salesman said.
It was. Now I have a really super sound movie called Alice's Midnight Binge. I
zoomed in to get a close-up of her red face. The microphone caught her surprised protests as
well as her muttered threats. Even with just the kitchen light for illumination, my movie
came out sharp and clear. With perfect color.
Of course, Alice won't let me show that movie to anyone. But I've
made lots of others. The Sankyo sound movie camera is a real
dream to use. All I do is pop in a Kodak™ sound film cartridge.
Plug in the mike. Aim and shoot.
The Sankyo sound movie camera takes care of all the ad-
justing by itself. Automatically. So I don't have to worry. By just
looking in the viewfinder, I can tell that the picture is perfectly
focused, the film is running properly, the sound level is correct,
and the exposure is right. Sankyo makes it impossible for me to
goof. Yet I spent less on my Sankyo than Alice spends on fad diets.
Yesterday Alice learned how to use the Sankyo sound movie
camera. In only 15 minutes. I heard her whispering something to the kids
about "Daddy's snoring". Wonder if she's plotting something to get even
for Midnight Binge?
Drop us a note, we'll send you the whole story. SANKYO Seiki (America) Inc., 149 Fifth Ave., New York, N.Y. 10010

From America, Oct 1945: Zerex Anti-Freeze ad from DuPont (+Zerone Anti-Freeze) «WHICH FACE WILL YOU WEAR THIS WINTER?»

This advertisement emphasizes the importance of using anti-freeze to prevent engine damage during winter. It contrasts the 'sad face' of car owners who neglect anti-freeze with the 'bright face' of those who use DuPont products. It promotes Zerone and Zerex as reliable solutions for rust, corrosion, and freezing, with a cartoon duck character promoting anti-freeze.

WHICH FACE WILL YOU WEAR THIS WINTER?

This sad face is reserved for the car-owner who forgets to get anti-freeze for his car in time. Old Man Winter will come along and split the engine block, cylinder head or radiator wide open. And when you try to replace engine parts these days, your face gets longer and longer. Yes-a freeze-up could be the death of your car this winter.
This bright face is for the car-owner who will have a Du Pont anti-freeze put into his radiator in plenty of time. He'll not only prevent a "freeze-up" but stop rust and corrosion as well. An extra happy smile comes from knowing his anti-freeze is going to stay put, which it will do if he asks his service man to check over his car's cooling system for leaks.
Since engine parts don't grow on trees, Protect yours now with anti-freeze!
$1.40 a GAL. War Emergency "Zerone"* gives thorough protection against rust and corrosion as well as freezing. Until regular "Zerone" comes back (this season's production went to war), there's no better buy at the price.
$2.65 a GAL. A limited supply of "Zerex,"* Du Pont's non-evaporating anti-freeze, is now available. "Zerex" won't boil out. One filling lasts all winter. Gives complete protection against rust and corrosion-won't form sludge.
