Reston Resident Tracks History Through Advertisements
Jay Paull runs website featuring thousands of vintage ads.
Jay Paull’s love of advertisements is practically genetic. His great-grandfather was an early publisher in West Virginia, and his daughter (Paull’s grandmother) started to collect those early publications. They’ve been passed down from generation to generation, with each one adding more advertisements to the collection.
