A New Way to Archive Vintage Detergent Boxes

[Unimatic1140]

So I came up with this new idea recently of archiving our vintage supermarket product box designs, specifically for all the cool vintage detergent boxes.

I haven't tested this code on all browsers and devices but it seems to work so far on the ones I have.

On a computer with mouse click and hold the left button down over the package and move your mouse slowly over in all directions to see the entire box.

On phones and tables use your finger and move the box around.

Let me know what you all think, I have more boxes coming...

1962 Dash
1966 Tide
1956 Oxydol
1966 Cheer

Excellent work Robert!  It works great on my iPad.  Reading the side labels on these boxes I remembered how people used to use laundry detergent to wash their dishes.  Thanks for your work to make these detergent boxes so easy to read.

Really cool 3d graphics on those. Notice there's no cold wash recommendations, just warm and hot.

Thanks Robert!  These are so cool!

 

A friend of mine who had a Victorian farm house in Sebastopol didn't have any modern appliances except for a TV set.  He always used Tide for washing dishes and there wasn't any dish soap to be found.  I never knew until now that P&G actually promoted this use for Tide.  I always thought he was heeding a large old framed sign in his kitchen that read, "Economy In Purchasing Leads to Independence."

Nice idea! I had a little trouble getting the image to stop where I wanted it on this phone.

As for using laundry detergent for other purposes, my grandfather in Mississippi always used Tide for dishes, kitchen and porch floors, and the car and truck. One of my neighbors used Oxydol for dishes until she got a dishwasher. Also saw her use it to scrub the concrete porch.

I absolutely love it Robert, how did you do it?

Please don’t tell me we have to send all our vintage detergents to you?

Cool to see the pictures of washers on the back of those boxes...

Even to see a woman demonstrating the actual use which is something missing rom today's detergent packages...

It even works here at work with Windows XP and Chrome 49.

 

Thanks Robert!

I actually found out something about the tide laundry detergent in the link I never realized. I understood that it was used for dishes but I never heard of tide as a multi purpose cleaner before.
Thanks for doing this.
