mfg Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Does anyone out there remember the two 'PAXTON PRODUCTS' slogans which they used quite a lot in ad's, etc, in the sixties and the seventies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfg Posted December 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Pack'n a Paxton Yes, this was a Paxton slogan....It came out years after the two we were looking for here,...But, still, Pack'n-A-Paxton is a legitamate Paxton slogan...So,..you are CORRECT on what seems to be a tough trivia question!

mfg Posted December 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Racers Edge for STP Hmmmmm!..... Definitely a slogan for good old STP......but not really a Paxton Supercharger slogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfg Posted December 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Okay, here they are: Paxton Products......."Home of practical supercharging" and Paxton Products......."We move air by pressure or vacuum" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psdenno Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 From an advertising standpoint, I'd have to say that company slogans that no one can remember are probably not worth the cost of the ink to print them. Those two are quite forgettable. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psdenno Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 I remembered them.....Still, it's always nice to hear your positive comments. Eddy, in what context do you remember them (magazine ads, trade journals, brochures, packing boxes, etc.) and how long ago? Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennW Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) I remembered them.....Still, it's always nice to hear your positive comments. Doubt if that was meant in any negative way, it's a very good observation on what slogans are supposed to be and do. Bet everyone can come up with a pair of slogans used by Coke, (3 instantly came to mind for me) or one or two for many other products. In the meantime, "I can't believe I ate the whole thing", "plop plop, fizz fizz" ☺ Heck, even Faber College had a better one. (When better women are made-Faber men will make them...) hee hee Edited December 24, 2014 by GlennW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunslinger Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 I realize that this was a time period of less "in your face" types of advertising, but it's always been that some slogans look better on paper than when heard aloud. I think those slogans miss the mark on both levels. There's nothing memorable or creative about either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree....What's memorable about those two slogans is that they are both a part of PAXTON PRODUCTS history....That's how I feel about them anyway!

psdenno Posted December 25, 2014 Report Share Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) Eddy, since "memorable" can be defined as "worth remembering", then enjoy the warm fuzzies you get from remembering those slogans. Revel in them. But, I almost hate to say this on Christmas Eve, be aware that most people might feel differently.
