Not like other vintage ads which are designed in black and white, this ad appears in color. Although the background of the ad is in blue, the yellow of Marilyn’s eye color, her hair, and some of small lines around her make the poster outstanding and attractive. The color signifies a modern look for a new promising, technological generation of recordable tapes. The ad represents an actual person, Marilyn Monroe. She is the image of a talented actress, a famous singer, and a professional model; moreover, she always symbolizes sexuality even though after her death.
