Much as I love vintage scientific imagery - motion sickness does not originate in the stomach. Scientifically literate customers will have a laugh (also at the product - which does exactly nothing).

PermalinkAgree-- the most scientific part of this is the visual. But wow-- part of me wishes I was still teaching portfolio school so I could assign this. "Okay kids-- come up with a way to sell a product that does absolutely nothing." Hell it's not really that much different from Coke or Pepsi selling Dasani and Aquafina when you think about it....

PermalinkI like the visual treatment, extending the inked calligraphy style to the line "free yourself" is a nice touch. The illustration itself is pretty nice too, sort of like a cross between ink & etching. For anyone who experiences seasickness and travel sickness (me! Hello!) the visual representation of a sea in your stomach is quite apt, because that's what it feels like.
