ArtistCreate a flat front-facing scan of a 1960's supermarket advertisement for a surreal product. Simple commercial style, faded ink, old print. A creepy shopkeeper presents the item, his mouth is huge. The product is a surreal plastic package full of insects. The text is unintelligible symbols.
A black and white pen and ink illustration depicts a frightened young man holding a clear plastic bag filled with black insects in a grocery store setting. The man has wide, startled eyes, an open mouth, and his hair is neatly combed back with a prominent forelock. He wears a white collared shirt and dark overalls or an apron. To the left, a wooden crate holds several bottles, some appearing to be beer or soda. To the right, shelves are stocked with numerous small bottles and jars. Above the man and the bag, there are three lines of stylized, non-English text or symbols that resemble a foreign alphabet. The overall style is reminiscent of vintage comic books or advertisements, with noticeable cross-hatching for shading and texture.
