MMMMMMona!

Mona deLux had something of a coming out in Taboo No.1 and the response to that was pretty significant. Then in our survey on special editions we threw her name in the mix and again a ton of YES feedback came our way. She and the talented Candylust shot this set (yes there's more) exclusively FOR RETRO LOVELY. They planned and created this Bardot-esque shoot with you our supporters in mind. When we saw the photos we couldn't resist this one as the cover (not finalized at this point) We hoped to have Taboo Edition No.2 in March, to be fair, and to do a good job we think this will need to shift into April.

Retro Christmas Ads: Remember when....

Remember when you and the old lady would light up a smoke after opening the Christmas presents?

Schlitz.... it helps with the holidays

Remember when Santa gave out cigarettes to all the good little boys and girls?

Remember when you could play with your electric train and smoke a cigarette (in your house - that you pay the mortgage for) and your wife was happy about it?

Bob Hope knew what to give his friends for Christmas!

Nothing like a donut-shaped fruit cake for the company Christmas party!

And finally.... If you happen to see a ghost as hot as her hanging ornaments on your tree... don't run, just smile and say "Merry Christmas".

Special thanks to the Retro Press for the ads.
