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

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: The
donor writes, "This is
oldest Dr. White's advert I have
(from "She" magazine, date at a
guess mid-late 60's). This was the
first
plastic package design
they used, replacing a plain
grey/blue cardboad box. The towels
(napkins) were the same, still
based on the original Southall
commercial sanitary towel
which was a
field wound dressing with a
paper/tissue center core with
loops attached [just as
Kotex developed from WWI bandages].
Prior to this pack design there
had been four sizes of towels, 0
to 3, but I never saw the size 0
(junior) after the change over. In
the mid 80's the size 1 and 2
towels were changed to the design
still available to-day, the size
3, "maternity use", was unchanged
until dropped a few years ago.'
