How to sell menstrual products: "Your Image is Your
Fortune!," 1967, from
Personal Products Company, maker of
Modess pads (U.S.A.) Pages 10-11
Manufacturers must convince stores
to sell their products, and how to do
that best, and that include tampons,
pads, belts and sanitary panties.
That was the task of the booklet
below, published right before the
Personal Products Company started the
self-adhesive
pad revolution.
Compare this to some ideas behind
the first
Kotex ad campaign, in 1921,
and to the Modess "silent purchase"
coupon of 1928.
