The commercials are really a nice insight into society of the era. It's interesting to hear Lifebuoy soap make people self-conscious of "BO" in a time when daily bathing was not the norm.

Could it be that the constant barrage of commercials is what made the daily bath virtually requisite today (in USA anyway)?

No, but you can use the Main BBS to post your comments.

I just discovered this BBS tonight, so I wasn't aware of the Commercials page. Thanks for the link!
