When people say they don't miss the Mary Blair Mural's because the murals "didn't really have anything to with Tomorrow" they really should read this August 1967 AT&T advertisement. Mary was "interpreting the promise of world wide communications in a colorful tile mosaic of a children's orchestra sending music to friends in other nations".. She predicted iTunes and YouTube four decades in advance!
She also invented Doritos, but that's another story!
ReplyDeleteTerrific!
ReplyDeleteAny idea what magazine and month this ad ran in? I would love to purchase an original and frame it!
