Advertising had been fully effective and altering buying patterns well before the advent of the television.
We studied 1920s cigarette ads, specifically those targetted to women. There was a lot of psychology being utilized. In fact, I'm not sure if modern advertising would have been possible had Freud's new science not splashed onto the scene in the 1900s.
