You're setting a graphics context:
	// uncommenting the next line works fine for all ads except the
last which
	// causes a crash after the last ad image is placed.
	//[NSGraphicsContext setCurrentContext: nsContext];

But you're never restoring the original context, and as a result, the
context is autoreleased later (and is still the current context).
saveGraphicsState and restoreGraphicsState only saves and restores the
state of the current context - it doesn't save/restore the current
context...

If you look a couple of lines down from that one, you'll see

[nsContext restoreGraphicsState];

It doesn't seem to make any difference when I uncomment that line as the gdb backtrace of the crash is exactly the same.

Is that "restoreGraphicsState " what you mean?

restoreGraphicsState restores the state of the current context - it does not restore the context to the previous context. You need to explicitly save the current context before you do setCurrentContext:


NSGraphicsContext *oldContext = [NSGraphicsContext currentContext];
[NSGraphicsContext setCurrentContext: nsContext];
... do drawing in the nsContext (save/restoreGraphics state impacts internal variables of nsContext)
[NSGraphicsContext setCurrentContext: oldContext];
