Nefa menstrual napkins (damesverband) ad,
the Netherlands, Feb. 20, 1954, magazine unknown
Why does the ad feature the dress? It could be that after the deprivations
of the Second World War Dutch women wanted to see fashionable dresses even
if they couldn't afford them, as the ad says. And maybe to change the subject
from menstruation.

My translation:
In one word: magnificent!
Extraordinarily chic is this black dress, completely decorated with braids
and ruffled bows. Decidely for very big occasions! And the flowered earrings
are very modern.
Not every woman can afford such a creation. But she can indeed be perfectly
groomed with the ideal menstrual pad with the new inventionthat keeps the
napkin flat. . . .
Now worth double [?]
