This vintage advertisement showcases the Malibu Hydro Spa, a compact, inflatable hot tub marketed as an affordable alternative to expensive home spas. Dominating the top half of the page is a large headline—“INTRODUCING The Malibu HYDRO Spa”—with the word “Spa” styled in oversized, flowing red script. To the right, a starburst graphic announces the low price of only $199, emphasizing fun, relaxation, and convenience. The main image features two smiling adults enjoying the circular brown spa, surrounded by lush tropical plants that create a backyard oasis atmosphere. Jets churn water around them, reinforcing the ad’s promise of “Hydro Pump jet action” for soothing muscles and relieving tension. A smaller inset photo highlights the internal jet mechanism. The lower portion contains detailed product information, including construction materials, portability, and power features. It explains that the spa runs on a rechargeable 12-volt battery (sold separately), inflates in minutes, and seats up to six. The ad wraps up with a mail-order form, offering an optional accessory package and encouraging customers to “ORDER NOW.”

A bicycle posing, resting on its kickstand. It's a black Raleigh Sports 3-speed with mud guards, a reed basket hangs from the handlebars. Crappy, mismatched rubber handles adorn the handlebars. A herringbone tweed saddle bag hangs from the leather saddle. The rear mudguard has the classic english bike white paint at the rear of the mudguard. It's on a sidewalk, green grass behind. In the background, vintage signs adorn the side of a building.
