Memorable print campaign for the “square” Jolly Ranchers, 1992.

GOD, NYC in the 1990s was epically fun, crazy, and creative. And the ads were much more creative, everywhere.

10 not-mediocre ads below, some most of you have not seen.

Here’s Part Five of this great series, where you also find the earlier four parts. Part Seven coming next week.
