Remember the good old days? The days when advertising was fun?

Remember watching for Burma-Shave signs, counting the miles to Wall Drug, or wondering what Rock City really was (and why it was in Chattanooga, Tennessee)?

I do.

These days, it's easy to forget that advertising — and its corresponding art — can be a valuable and appreciated part of our culture and history.

It's time to bring back the best of the good old days: Days when advertising was true art, when advertising meant something, when advertising was worth remembering!

State of the Ozarks is dedicated to bringing you the best in advertising just as we bring you the best in editorial stories.

State of the Ozarks is dedicated to bringing you advertising that is culturally significant — Advertising that supports — rather than detracts from — the heritage of the Ozarks.
