Norman Rockwell vs. Albert Dorne in a cage match battle for your art school dollars
If you’ve ever read a 1960s comic book and flipped it over to look at the back side, there are real good odds that you’ve seen (Basset Hound-less) advertisements for the Famous Artists School. The alternating versions featured two of the founders of the school, the uber-renowned Norman Rockwell and the lesser-nowned Albert Dorne. The question for today is: Which one of these guys do you trust more? Who’d get more commission money if recruitment numbers were the basis of their pay package?
Up first is Rockwell:
The tie. The Mister Rogers sweater that screams KINDLY OLD GRANDFATHER. But behind every soft facade lies a dark secret.
Now Dorne:
The exposed proletarian forearms of Ernest Borgnine. Eyebrows like caterpillars.
Your choice. Pick your poison.

Man, I must have 100 or more issues with these ads and I never noticed there were two different guys. You have a good eye. I’m voting for Rockwell, largely based on the strength of his hit “Somebody’s Watching Me.”
I don’t know if my eyes are better, but Dorne was hard to miss since he looks so pissed at having his work interrupted.
