Maids in Old Advertising
My collection of maids in vintage newspaper and magazine advertisements. Once a popular theme, it has almost entirely disappeared in the post-WW2 world.
The Booke's Soap advert is really nice, I had it framed and hangs in our kitchen, unfortunately the hint hasn't been taken regarding a more suitable attire lol
I really enjoyed reading this post, big fan. Keep up the good work andplease tell me when can you publish more articles or where can I read more on the subject? rtb advertising platform
These are fascinating!

Indeed, maids were apparently a mainstay of early advertising. Much like a housewife in the 1950s.
DeleteThe reproductions of these adverts is interesting and are often on sale at stately homes
