menstruation, cellulose in cotton
gauze, early 1930s?

for donating this box!

Below:
The opened box. It arrived holding
11 tampons although there was room
for another; I suspect someone at
Procter & Gamble removed one.
The box does not say how many are
inside. You can see the duplicate
sheets of instructions peeking out
above the the top row of 'pons.
None of the tampons emerged
wrapped.

Below:
There are two sheets of identical
instructions in the box printed
front and back; you see the back
of one sheet and the front of the
other. They measure 2 3/8 x 2 1/8"
(6 x 8 cm). Compare to the fax
and Nunap instructions!
