A chronology of Ponder & Best (later Vivitar) advertising and marketing
Introduction
In the early years, Ponder & Best primarily distributed products branded by other companies. Starting in the 1960s, P&B began marketing products under their own brand name, Vivitar. The brand was so successful, the company eventually changed their name to Vivitar. This article presents a chronology of advertising from the company, primarily through the presentation of magazine ads, original tear sheets, and other marketing literature.
