Learn the secret of internal youth

As I was looking though my great-aunt's amazing collection of old newspapers and magazines, I came across this edition of Woman's Illustrated from 1937. It is full of interesting articles and advertisements from the 1930's. Yesterday, I shared with you an advert for salts that 'will dissolve pounds of loose, flabby flesh -and more, it will tone up your whole system and give life a new sparkle.' You can read about it in my post Be sensible about slimming.

That inner clean feeling!

Today, I'm sharing this special find of an advert for Innerclean from 1937. I was drawn to the title 'Learn the secret of internal youth.' Even though my face is looking a little haggard it is nice to think that my insides could be youthful. All I have to do, according to the advert, is put half a teaspoon of these crushed herbs onto my tongue at bedtime.

'People know you by your face, your figure and your vitality.'

'Nature's own source of lasting loveliness is a sweet clean system -internal youth!'

Remember these adverts are from 1937 and not current or medical advice.

I adore old advertisements and not just because of how funny they can be. I also really love that old style of product packaging, there's just something about it.

I like all the drawings- nothing digital.
Thank you for the upvote too!
