Natwest Bank - Consume Reproduce
Original ad was the same except the words 'consume reproduce' were not present. The original ad appeared in tabloids in the UK and I guess they were trying to get people to go back to the Thacherite 80's where people would work hard and live for the weekend (Drop Acid/E and stay up late). Inspired by Aldous Huxley's book 'Brave New World'.
