Ivory Soap golfer
-
1906 McClure's Marketplace of the World magazine ad page for Ivory Soap featuring a Lady Golfer.
The page measures approximately 9.75" x 6.5". There is some roughness along the right edge where it was removed from the magazine, foxing and a water stain along the bottom edge, and considerable yellowing from aging - but in context, I hope I look as good at 106 years old! Most of the damage is beyond the edges of the ad itself, and would be hidden by a mat when framing
Pepsodent Flapper
- 1928 black and white magazine ad for Pepsodent Toothpaste. Terrific ad featuring a flapper, touting the benefits of Pepsodent in eliminating dingy film for healthier teeth. Page measures approximately 10" x 7". It has staple marks on the left edge, the year in pencil on the lower right corner, and typical discoloration from aging, but otherwise it appears to be in good condition. A mat would cover the edges, it's definitely suitable for framing. Terrific gift for a dentist, or to hang in your bathroom.
