Description
Black and white 10″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their Tooth Paste with Oral Detergent. There is a picture of a brother and sister, facing each other at the bathroom sink. They are each intently brushing their teeth while the young man holds the tube of Pepsodent. Looking at the picture I get the feeling that they are having a race because the young lady is smiling and the young man does not look too happy. There is a small inset with two pictures of the young man and the caption asking you to “Make Your Own test…” and it tells you one morning to brush your teeth with Pepsodent and pay attention to how long your mouth feels fresh. The next morning use your old tooth paste and, again, see how long you mouth feels fresh. The claim is made that with Pepsodent you will have “Clean Mouth Taste for Hours”.
