Yeah, I know it’s just a subway ad for Led Zeppelin Album Reissues that have already been available for over a month, but still, it’s Led Zeppelin! I actually hopped off the L one stop before I needed to, just so I could take this photo. Of course, I got back on once the next train arrived.

Okay, this is insane right? Insanely Clever, granted, but, well just insane otherwise. Some creative Ad Exec deserves an award for coming up with this image of a Raid Roach Bait Trap shaped like an Ice Cream Truck with the sign “Sweet Death” hovering over it. That is so awesome.

These ads for the new, third season of Orange is The New Black — where each character is depicted on the front of a Jesus Candle — started showing up in the subway last night on those interactive information boards that they have in some stations (if you’re lucky).

I passed this ad in the subway a couple of times before I was sure that it incorporates the original art of Jeff Soto, and wasn’t just made to look like a copy of his art. A little Googling on this end revealed that, as part of the next phase of its Play with OREO campaign, the company commissioned 10 emerging artists from around the globe “to see what happens when you put a 100+ year old brand into the hands of creative visionaries who are known for pushing the boundaries, and ask them to develop and share creative OREO expressions of play through their art forms.” The artists who worked on the project include Soto, Brosmind, Alex Trochut, Geoff McFetridge, Craig + Karl, Andrew Bannecker, Ryan Todd, Shotopop, Andy Rementer, and MCBESS.
