Heed My Warning!




Heed My Warning!

1958 True Secrets magazine




Sound too good to be true? Of course it does..." With a name like National Health it's gotta be the real thing, right? ad: Modern Confessions 1967



When I was a little girl I used to dream of wearing the long, sheer peignoirs (among other things) in these ads. I assumed I wasn't supposed to be looking at the ads considering the fact that they came from my parents bathroom and not the regular pile of household junk mail; ie, Lilian Carter catalogs, so I actually hid them under my mattress! My babysitter found a Fredericks of Hollywood there one day and used it as blackmail against me for what seemed like an eternity.





I wish I'd known this before I decided to quit..


Ladies Home Journal 1956



"May be used secretly for Whiskey, Wine, Beer, Gin, etc."
