It looks like Wintergreen gum, a green background with white rectangles splayed around. Am I the only one to ever notice this? It is there at least as far back as the eighties.

I haven't noticed the ads you're talking about, but back in the sixties every magazine had a cigarette ad on the back cover, for "Victory" cigarettes. No such brand ever existed, but the pack looked suspiciously like "Valiant", a secondary brand in the market at that time. Also, most "news magazines" (regardless what show you were watching) were different issues of "Newstime", a fictitious publication which, depending on the needs of the episode, might have looked like an issue of Time or an issue of Newsweek. The exception to this, of course, was on That Girl, where Don Hollinger wrote for "Newsday"' which tended to look a lot like U.S.News & World Report.
My point is, it may LOOK like Wintergreen gum, but it's probably not.

Wintergreen gum pays well.

Ads are given to those who pays the most.

I really have no idea why. I notice it too, and its really weird cause I see it on magazines all the time.
