Toonfomercial: Does visualizing the cause of your pain make you reach for Alka-Seltzer? (1968)

 Miles Laboratories' ad agency hired comics icon Wally Wood to design this 1968 spot for Alka-Seltzer. What we can't be sure of is if this harried fellow is dreaming all of this.


Looks like some Golden Age influences here, some of it perhaps inappropriate. Today, Bayer makes Alka-Seltzer, and could use an ad like this to draw attention......
