AIWA Ads

I don't have many duds up until around 1990, then they started getting plasticy and basic. It blows my mind how far some of these companies fell and weren't able to adjust to the 2000's. I would love to see cell-phone wars between all the old-school companies, imagine an AIWA Cell-Phone Boombox, built in streaming and more.

This is a newspaper ad from 1980 but it's so large we'll put it here! This had to have been big money back then. The ad is a multi-page newspaper insert, very common over here especially going into the holiday buying season.

 

I saw them more in the locker room playing some pre-game music and on the field during practice. I used to bring my cheap model around with me when we went out skateboarding.
