Insurance/Financial

Insurance advertising uses a couple of approaches.  One is to scare the crap out of you and make you feel guilty for not protecting yourself and your family.  Some companies use a more low key approach.  The best of these is a series run by John Hancock Insurance which provides historical vignettes from American history.  This section also includes ads for bonds, banks and the like.
