Title

Pears' Soap

Subject

20th Century Advertisement Marketing Hygiene Soap

Description

Looks like hygiene and being clean was a big thing in the turn of the century. In this advertisement they use mainly women who are all dressed up. The target audience is obviously women and it is more obvious in the description where they use words like good use for complexion and it alone can change the way you look. One thing that seems to catch the attention is that not only are women being shown here to show this is a feminine product but it also depicts women from many races or parts of the world to show that this truly is a world wide product.
