A real 'treasure trove' of Motown adverts on that site. Thanks for sharing Booty.

Holy cow. A lot of advertisements I have never seen, especially the one for the
Spinners. Thanks for alerting us.

Great trip down Memory Lane! I halfway expected to see one that I remembered from 1972. The Black Magic album had just come out, along with whatever Stevie released at the same time. Then there were two new up and coming Motown artists [[don't remember who they were) that also released albums around the same time. So on the front cover of either Billboard or Cashbox, I remember an ad showing all four albums and the catchphrase was "The Newest by the Best and the Best by the Newest." Of course, little did we know that it would turn out to be the last Motown album by Martha.

I do remember seeing some of these ads. Some even posted in record stores in Detroit at the time.
