A Guessing Game - Fun with Ads from 1948

I'm having trouble posting a comment on your blog,so can I guess here??

1) you already said nail polish/lipstick (I thought it could also have been jewelry)

2) I think the gal with parasol is advertising lingerie, a strapless girdle/bra like Maidenform, maybe?

3) How about Listerine? Lysol? or a brand of automobile?

4) I think maybe the bride is dreaming of hope chests? or diamonds? or something silly like canned pineapple??

Jen, I'm giving you half credit on #3. The ad IS for Listerine, but it is not being used for bad breath. So what IS it being used for??????

No on the other two.
 
:wub:

great blog, Jody, keep up the excellent work!!!

:drinkingtoast:

and thank you for the entertainment and education you provide!!!
 
Oh gosh. could Listerine have been marketed as a douche?? Or maybe for head lice or under arms or something equally gross??? :cry:
 
The Listerine was marketed for DANDRUFF!!! You were supposed to shampoo with it. And the bride was in an ad for Gorham Sterling flatware.

Thanks, Mary!
