THANK YOU FOR IMPROVING MY SKIN, THANK YOU FOR IMPROVING MY LIFE!

No, it's not thefez gone rampant, it's the famous Dr. Zizmor!

If you live in New York City, you know Dr. Zizmor.

Outside of Rudi there aren't too many New York Personalities who get as much coverage as our dear doctor does.

There was a time when nearly every subway car you ventured into would have a Dr. Zizmor ad - blazing the way towards an every tackier world where skin disease went had in hand with Gap ads.

...But times have changed and been hard for Dr. Zizmor, what with the MTA deciding to hike advertising prices in 1995 and encourage companies to purchase the advertising rights to an entire half of a car. Today you're more likely to see Banana Republic dominating you left while Captain Morgan proclaims his need to party on the right.

Smaller vendors not interested in purchasing entire half cars are limited to the 20% of the availble cars that offer small panel advertising. And you can bet in those 20% that Dr. Zizmor will be there, shining his pearly white skin against his rainbow backdrop telling you how to make your life a better one in just a few easy steps.

AND YOU CAN GO BACK TO WORK THE VERY SAME DAY!

NOW YOU CAN HAVE...

Beautiful, Clear Skin.

In 1995, the MTA gave a five-year contract to Gannett, for handling advertisement leasing. Gannett spokesman Doug Watts classified Dr. Zizmor's ads as part of the "bottom-fishers."¹ Dr. Zizmor considered suing the MTA and contacted Public Advocate Mark Green, because all of the ad space was allocated to block advertising, squeezing out small businesses. At the last minute, Gannett released 20% of panel space for small panel advertising. Dr. Zizmor said the legal threat may have forced it, but he believed Gannett just failed to sell the space.²

Other semi-interesting tidbits:

Pete Hamill suggested a New York Aptitude Test in the New Yorker, to test prospective public office candidates. One of the questions is "Who is Dr. Zizmor?"³

Dr. Zizmor makes an appearance in Kenneth Goldsmith's No. 111 2.7.93-10.20.96, in Section VI.⁴

He's a prolific author!⁵ And on the Board of Directors at Yeshiva University.⁶

THANK YOU, DR. ZIZMOR!
