The Newspaper for People in Sunglasses

Watch this splendidly dated television advertisement for The European from 1991. In that year, the Soviet Union still existed, Eastern Airlines closed after sixty-two years in aviation, the IRA was still bombing London, Archbishop Lefebvre went on to his eternal reward, Édith Cresson became premier of France, and the Dow Jones closed above 3,000 for the first time — today it closed at 11,532.88.

*sigh* I miss the European!

It’s a pity we can’t get it back!?

I miss the 90s.

It’s a pity we can’t get them back.
