Description

Colgate Ad January 1944Black and white 5 1/4″ x 14″ ad for their Ribbon Dental Cream. The ad has a series of photos that tell a story. The first photo is of a U.S. Navy Seaman looking despondent as he leans against a fire hydrant thinking “I musta slipped her mind!”. A friend stops by and tells him to “Try policing up that breath”. He sees a dentist who tells him to use Colgate which he does and his girlfriend, and other girls, won’t leave him alone. This ad is taller than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
