New York Magazine is celebrating its 40th anniversary in the latest edition by listing many 'bests' that are fun and memorable. My personal fav: their picks for the best ads. There's a lesson in marketing, buzz, relevance and content in every one of them.

As New York's review of one of the best spots, American Tourister's 1970 'Gorilla,' says, great advertising: "...engages, entertains, and sells.”
