1965 would see the return of advertising. It was only the year after that the ads started getting kinda cute, though - on the inner side of the front cover was:
An ad for sleeper and restaurant cars in the 1966/7 CFR timetable. A smiling butterfly-winged, human-faced creature holds a server's tray with drinks and a waiter's cloth (or how do you call it) in its hands, and in the bright spots on its purplish wings are depicted silhouettes - one sleeping in a bed, the other reclined in a seat, reading. In the background, a train on an electrified line rides through a misty forest.
The caption reads in Romanian: "Călătorind cu vagonul de dormit și servind masa la vagonul restaurant"
Another example that drew my attention:
An ad in the 1966/7 CFR timetable depicting a hedgehog, standing on its hind legs in front of a mirror, holding a razor in its front left paw and is turned to look at the reader. It's drawn to look kind of beardy. The captions read:
