Mimosept mini menstrual pad ad, 1972, Denmark (Billed Bladet magazine?) menstruation, women, health, menstrual cycle A Scandinavian company, Mölnlycke, made this pad, one of many since the company's founding right after World War II that it celebrated - the founding, not World War II - in a menstrual products exhibit in a public museum in Norway. So, when do you think YOUR city museum will hold an exhibit of menstrual hygiene items? Not only did at least two German public museums also do that but your MUM was open four years in my house. An earlier Dutch ad compared the new adhesive pad with the old belt-and-pad. Below: The ad cut from a page measures 7 5/16 x 12 3/4" (18.6 x 32.4 cm). My translation lies below the ad. My translation of the large text: It's not enough that a pad adheres by itself Below: The bottom text enlarged followed by my translation. The photo at top right also appears here. My translation: "I want a pad that feels soft and dry the whole day," says Dorte, "and Mimosept does that. Because it's made a special way so everything is absorbed into the pad while the surface stays dry and soft. It's the safest I've ever tried."
