A Subtle “Buy American” Message

A couple of months ago, I watched the HBO documentary Schmatta, a history of the garment industry in New York. In it, they pointed out that in 1965, 95% of the clothing sold in America was made in America. In 2005, that was 5%. I think it’s shameful. Admittedly, my clothing purchases don’t help the cause.

But yeah, I dig this ad. It’s a trade ad, originally done in 2004 but also ran recently according to Copyranter.
