Ad for the Kotex menstrual
napkins Not
a shadow of a doubt
campaign (U.S.A.,
1949, Parade magazine, a Sunday
newspaper supplement)
Kotex ran
many ads for its Not a shadow of
a doubt ad campaign,
expressing a favorite theme: concealment of
menstruation. At least one
other Kotex campaign had this
theme: the Phantom
Kotex
series from the 1930s.
The
woman's shadow is a clever
addition.

Below:
A rarity: the artist - Ron Wicks?
- signed
the illustration, whose signature
I enlarged below the large ad. The
most famous signed Kotex ads are
probably
those by Irving
Nurick.
Tubbings
is an interesting reference to
washing the belt in a wash tub.
