Last but not least: alumni of Gisler & Gisler wanted

 A large-scale "class reunion" among advertising colleagues is in the offing: On Friday, November 2, the employees of the legendary advertising agency Gisler & Gisler will meet for an Italian buffet at the Löwen restaurant in Meilen. The organizers expect 150 to 200 participants. Doris Gisler, the "Grand Old Lady" of Swiss advertising and former owner of the Gisler & Gisler agency, is also expected to attend. As Walter Merz, co-initiator of the meeting, announced, well over half of the 300 alumni have already been contacted. Those who have not yet received an invitation and would like to attend should please contact [email protected]. Gisler & Gisler, at that time the largest agency in Switzerland, created such famous campaigns in the sixties and seventies as "Chästeilet" or Fondue (F.i.g.u.g.e.g.l.) for the Swiss Cheese Union, then among many others also the campaigns for Valser, Ovomaltine, Feldschlösschen, Thomi & Franck, Butter, Hero, Union Bank of Switzerland SBG, Modissa or Mitsubishi. After the merger with BBDO, Gisler & Gisler was part of the large-scale merger Aebi,Suter,Gisler,Studer,BBDO (ASGS/BBDO) at the end of the 1980s.
