Probably appeared near the "X-Ray Specs" and "The Making of Mac" Charles Atlas ads in the comics. "Wait, here's something I owe you!!!"
The ad's age is also given away by the lack of any lawyer-authored large-print disclaimers that read "WARNING TO KIDS AND PARENTS: THIS KIT IS AN IMITATION, MAKE-BELIEVE TOY SUBMARINE ONLY INTENDED FOR BACKYARD FUN AND ADVENTURE. IT IS NOT AN OFFENSIVE NUCLEAR WEAPON CAPABLE OF DESTROYING VAST SWATHS OF CIVILIZATION, WHILE DIVING TO INCREDIBLE DEPTHS IN WATER WAY OVER YOUR HEAD. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO HUNT DOWN AND KILL RED OCTOBER, AND DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TAKE YOUR EXPLORER FRIENDS ON A TITANIC-VIEWING EXPEDITION.
Boy, C.O.D. and 75 cents shipping.........those were the days!

Some actual warnings on items:
"Does Not Enable You To Fly" on a Superman costume.
"This is a Deadly Weapon and Can Kill You" on both a Marlin 30-30 rifle and a Colt Model 1911 .45 automatic.
"Do Not Drive With Sun Shield In Place" on an automobile windshield sun shield. I thought this absurd until I encountered a woman driving with one in place.

I remember seeing that advertisement in the back of just about every comic book I ever read. Of course I wanted it.

That reminded me of the old Johnson Smith ads that used to be in the pages of comics. MAD Comics did a great satire on those ads. "...looks like a real cannon. Perfectly safe as long as you don't stand in front of muzzle when firing."

If there is one thing I despise, it is poorly written manuals, and it seems that the one for the Tesla car does not even show where the gas filler cap is located.
So a kind gentleman came over to help her and the both of them still could not figure it out.
Now, I have personally seen a gas station blow up and would not watch this activity from closer than a block away.

Alternatively, you can put your lunch in one of those "Infectious Waste" disposal bags they have at hospitals.
In fact, you can put just about anything you want to protect in one of those bags. I wonder if they make them large enough to contain a car.

That has nothing to do with an owner's manual. That is all the owner who has no clue what they are doing, only that it is "socially responsible" but don't know why.

I used to have "danger radioactive material" stickers on the windows of my outside storage shed. It worked until hurricane Katrina. She had no respect.

My brother had the Superman costume with the "can't fly" warning. I thought it also read, "Only the real Superman can fly" "Real" and "can", as if he existed.

Somewhere I have a picture of a vanity license plate on a car that says 'BLONDE."
It is on the car upside down.
