A Wrinkle! I'm Getting Old!

BUT LADY.."dishpan hands" make

you look older than a wrinkle does!!

"Middle-aged hands" often make people add three to five years to your age... yet it's easy to guard against those criss-cross wrinkles on your knuckles, that coarsening of the skin... Protect your hands in the dishpan. Don't use ordinary washday soaps for dishes - they weren't made to protect sensitive skin. But IVORY SOAP was. Give your hands a gentle Ivory bath every time you wash dishes - you'll be surprised how nice your hands stay. Another surprise -- Ivory Soap actually costs less to use for dishs than washday chips and powders! So make Ivory your dishwashing soap today. Ask for practical "Large Size" Ivory.

Keep your Hands Young
... wash dishes with IVORY SOAP

Happy Birthday R.Crumb

Robert Dennis Crumb (born August 30, 1943) — known as R. Crumb — is an American artist and illustrator recognized for the distinctive style of his drawings and his critical, satirical, subversive view of the American mainstream.

Crumb was a founder of the underground comix movement and is regarded as its most prominent figure. Though one of the most celebrated of comic book artists, Crumb's entire career has unfolded outside the mainstream comic book publishing industry. One of his most recognized works is the "Keep on Truckin'" comic, which became a widely distributed fixture of pop culture in the 1970s. Others are the characters Devil Girl, Fritz the Cat, and Mr. Natural.
