Fels-Naptha




This is a photocopies of Fels-Naptha magazine advertisements. The doll has one outfit that is 'clean' and she is wearing a 'dirty' outfit.  I don't have a date on this
The text on the first reads
"The welcome that had to be washed away
Helen arrived, all by herself, to visit her Aunt Mary.  Up the steps and into the house she went- to be greeting with hugs and kisses. 'Deary me, you look clean and neat as a a pin!' exclaimed Aunt Mary, taking Helen's bag and coat and hat.  But no sooner had she said the words than in rushed Jerry, the Airedale pup.  leaping and bounding with delight, he planted his muddy front paws on Helen leaving great splotches all over her fresh clean dress. 'Down, Jerry, down!' said Aunt Mary sternly, for just a trace of tears glistened in Helen's eyes.  'You shouldn't say 'how-do-you-do; liek that!' 'He's made my party dress look dreadful for visiting' sniffed Helen.  'Don't you worry about that dear,' said Aunt Mary, smiling. "Fels-Naptha Soap will take out those muddy footprints without any trouble at all.  Why we're been using Fels-Naptha for years to wash little girls' clothes like yours!'"
