“Banish title-tattle grey!”

These black and white, long half-page ads for Fels Naptha Soap date from 1936-39.

They were photo stories about laundry-gossiping neighbours and interfering busy bodies setting things right (or rather, “white”)!

“I could hear those cats meowing even in my dreams.”

“How can a man forget so soon?”

“How to laugh at snoopers.”

“Sh-s-sh, Susan” The bride’s on the griddle!”
