Tampax menstrual tampon ad, U.K., August 1991
Company magazine
Right-hand page. See the left-hand page.
The British tend to have funnier ads than other Europeans and the
Americans. Using every reason as a #1 is clever and reminds me of a great
French o.b. tampon ad.
See a funny Libresse ad on a phone booth
in London. And see a series of humorous British
ads. |
Below: The right-hand page of the advertisement.
Left-hand page.
Most of the points seem very basic and remind me of an earlier
ad.
