Growing Up and Liking It!, 1949, Modess puberty and menstruation booklet, U.S.A.
Complete booklet


This 1949 edition of Growing Up and Liking It! differs somewhat from the 1944 version. Some pictures are different, some text is rearranged or changed and some typography has loosened up. Compare the Kotex booklet "You're a young lady now" from three years later.


Below: Front cover (back cover is blank). The booklet measures 5 x 7 3/16" (12.8 x 18.2 cm) and is black and white inside. The cover looks to be a duotone, a special way of printing two colors that gives many tones and combinations of black and a variety of red.
