DDB&Co, Istanbul hit us with this campaign for Dank!, a used furniture store that admonishes, “If you really want it, it’s worth waiting for.” To make the point, print ads outline a series of events that have brought actors or famous people all over the map.

A list of Elizabeth Taylor’s husbands, for example, is at left. You can also see Sharon Stone’s film career (up to the point where she hits Turk TV) and Gabe Batistuta’s clubs.

We’re not quite sure we’d want these peoples’ hand-me-down divans, but hey, if Russell and Kimora clamored for the late Versace’s bed and dining table we suppose there’s a market.
