  • If you couldn't tell already, the most obvious theme for this week is cleaning up with soap? What kind of soap, you say? Well, several kinds! Ivory, Camay, Safeguard, Lava, Boraxo, Dial, Soaky...fifteen minutes worth, to be exact!
    Today's trip goes once again into the archives of 1001 Classic Commercials, to visit the good old days of advertising, and when saying "Softer Sex" didn't mean stuff that aired on movie channels after 11 pm.
    Today, we'll look at fifteen minutes worth of suds!

    Thanks for posting! Brought back some memories. I'm here because of "the smallest soap in the house". Can't believe thirty-one thousand people are on our wavelength! Yeah for soap and soap operas! Thx again!

    Yes we used the word sex to differentiate men and women. Not gender which is for pronouns. What is the sex of the newborn. Male of female. That's how it was.
