I was cutting up some crumbling vintage magazines and came across a few magnificent advertisements. I'll post more - but I think this one is my favorite, it's from a magazine that was published in the 1950s.

This ad must have made all those gals terrified that people were going to smell the dirty business all over them.

I've been a follower of your blog for some time and I just gotta say: you find the craziest stuff.
Thank you for the laugh!
OMG can you imagine the mad rush to go buy Arrid? Too funny. Come to think of it, I think my Granny used Arrid. Oh my!
:-O
That's some crazy advert there. I can't believe I lived all my life without having even HEARD of sex perspiration! Between you and me; I'd never have guessed it would be considered offensive ;-)
Why were they wearing clothes during sex? Well, I guess it was the 50s.
How funny and terrifying for those that saw this ad when it came out!
All my stank smells the same to me!
PS - Unless I eat curry.
And did you notice the GIANT pit stains they put under that poor girl kissing the boy goodnight?
I'm so glad we live in a more enlightened time...we *do* live in a more enlightened time, right? RIGHT??? ;)
Do you think people will be laughing about our ads in 50 years? Some of them make me laugh now... like Cialis ("See a doctor immediately if you have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours.") Tee hee hee... get's me every time.
Good thing I already use Arrid for all my sexpiration needs.
Who thought perspiration could be used as a scare tactic on keeping ladies pure? Because basically it's saying: you do the dirty, everyone will smell it! You smell like a ... "experienced woman". I think my fav parts of old mags like this are the ads. Awesome find - love it!
