Ad for the Kotex menstrual napkins Not a shadow of a doubt campaign (U.S.A., 1940s-1950s)

Kotex ran many ads (see a similar one compared with an earlier Modess ad ) for its Not a shadow of a doubt ad campaign, expressing a favorite theme: concealment of menstruation. At least one other Kotex campaign had this theme: the Phantom Kotex series from the 1930s.

The photographer with model below recalls the long series of fancy ads for Modess pads that some prominent photographers shot, using some models with famous names.
