Nothing Smell of the Nursery

More than vintage Ivory Snow! Kind of gets one all broody! *LOL*

Am that half torn between cracking open a box and doing some wash, or keeping them for posterity!

Given the amount of new mothers in the area, better keep the twins out of sight!

Just look at the graphics on the box! That adorable wee baby and obviously a rather young mother. Today most pics/designs have updated to take into account many women putting off baby making into their thirties.

"Ivory Snow Washes Softer Than Detergents.... and Doesn't Your Baby Deserve Ivory Snow Softness?".

interesting graphics on it, but

what IS Ivory Snow? A detergent?

I agree, the front cover mom is comparably younger than today's commercial moms and also, she has this swinging and bouncing "Charlie's Angels" hairdo (Sigorney Weaver as a nurse? Or was it Nanny Fine in a P&G hair dye commercial? *grin*)

Or is it a powdered softener or a disinfectant?
Thanks.

Ivory Snow

Powdered soap. Pure powdered soap with the most wonderful scent. For anyone who either had or took care of infants through the 1990's or so when the product was changed, you *KNOW* the smell at once. *LOL*

Proctor and Gamble marketed Ivory Flakes (soap flakes), and Ivory Snow powdered from about the 1940's through the late 1990's when the powder was changed to a detergent formula. The soap flakes were discontinued earlier, but in the end even the soap powder didn't have enough market sales one supposes to stop P&G from changing things.

Closest thing on your side of the pond would have been Lux Flakes of old.
