Dr White's ad, an ad contest for Dr
White's and wearing Dr White's with a thong. And a penis-tampon ad

Dr[.] White's Fancy
Free (date? publication?)
I thank
very much the contributor from
the U.K.!
See another
two-page Dr White's ad, with
moons yet, and showing its
advantage with thongs..
And here's a contest
to make an ad for Dr White's pads.
(See a non-menstrual funny ad
on the back of a Dr White's ad,
just to see how much humor there
is in some British
publications.)

Below:
This seems ordinary - a woman
showing she can behave as usual
during her period, something
early tampons
touted - until
you
see the name of the pad - er,
towel, at bottom. An
image smacking
of Emily Dickinson and the ballet
Fancy Free. Note that the woman
wears tight pants, a demonstration
harking back to early Kotex
and Modess
ads.
The donor writes, "BTW under UK
advertising rules, all adverts
have to be honest
and truthful."

Below:
Maybe the best image of all for
freedom. Hm, shouldn't it be red
like the American cardinal?
