Ad for Carefree pantiliner (Slip-Einlagen), Mädchen magazine (1983, Dr. Carl Hahn GmbH, Germany) See the first ad for an introduction. My translation: [Headline] Carefree girls feel secure. Also on the days between periods [a pun in German] [Small text] Sometimes between periods natural secretions flow from the vagina. That's due to the sex hormones, which haven't settled into a routine. So daily cleanliness is especially important for all girls. Carefree Pantiliners keep the intimate area dry and clean. Then you can play sports and move freely. Carefree Pantiliners are especially thin and soft. One doesn't feel them at all. The double adhesive strips hold the liner perfectly and it doesn't slip. They make certain that Carefree girls feel secure and fresh every day. There's also Carefree Pantiliners with a skin-friendly deodorant. Carefree Pantiliners: The hygienic panty protection for every day. The ad measures 8 x 10 5/8" (20.5 x 27.1 cm). END: Carefree ad #2, Carefree ad #1 - SEE a later German Carefree ad - an American Carefree ad - an ad for Carefree tampons - See San-Nap-Pak sanitary napkin ads from 1932 and 1945 and Ads for teenagers.
