Johnson 3

Full color 9 3/4" x 13 1/2" ad for the "3 new plastic bandages...all with Super-Stick". These three amazing bandages from Band-Aid were how they were making it possible for us to bandage up every little nick in every possible spot. There are three pictures that show a young girl swimming in a pool and in each picture she has a different bandage on. In the first she has a Band-Aid Plastic Patch on the inside of her hand and it shows her swimming a stroke. The second picture shows a Band-Aid Plastic Strip on her forearm as she again is swimming. The third picture shows her sitting in the water with a Band-Aid Plastic Spot applied to her cheek. The text says there is "A shape for every need. Flesh-colored. Won't loosen in water." and, below this, it shows the "Plastic Bandage Kit" that was available.

Black and white 9" x 12" ad for their Baby Powder and Baby Oil. The ad has a soft, muted picture that shows a dark-haired mother gazing adoringly down into the face of the young baby that she is holding in her arms and the headline warns "Fragile...handle with Johnson's". The ad text explains a few of the reasons they feel that these products are important for your baby's comfort.

/ Babies

Full color 9 1/2" x 13" ad for some of their First Aid Products. There is a picture drawn by John Falter that shows a young girl sitting on the front door steps with an apple, her doll and a knife. She is working on some artsy project that has required her to accumulate a lot of little pieces to be lying on the ground in front of her and the headline asks "How many ways can she hurt herself today?". At the bottom of the ad are shown five products of theirs that are recommended for a First Aid Kit and they would, at the time, have cost "about $2". Shown are Cotton Balls (39 cents), First Aid Cream (59 cents), Steri-Pad Gauze Pads (40 cents), Band-Aid Clear Tape (39 cents) and Improved Bandage (33 cents). This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.

Johnson 7

Black and white 10" x 13 1/2" ad for the Johnson & Johnson Band-Aid Sheer Strips which, the picture calls, "The Breathing Bandage". In the picture a little girl is having her mother place one of these bandages on her knee. We can tell that the little girl is not being pained while it is being done because there is the hint of a smile on her face. The ad gives us assureances because "Now. Air Vents all over help you heal even faster. Healing air comes in. Moisture goes out. You heal faster. Your skin stays fresh: the breathing bandage helps prevent that whitened wrinkled look. And SUPER STICK makes sure the bandage won't loosen - even in water. Somehow you feel safer just knowing you have the breathing bandage in your medicine chest. (Save money, buy your Band-Aid Sheer Strips in the large size package. Only 60 cents)".

Full color 10" x 13" ad for their Sheer Strips Band-Aids.

The ad headline says "Now Air Goes Through" and the text talks about the benefit of using a product with Air-Vents.

Johnson 8

Three color 9 3/4" x 13 3/4" ad for Johnson & Johnson Band-Aid Sheer Strips. This is an interesting ad showing a little boy with his fist sitting on top of a box of Band-Aid Sheer Strips, holding a toy soldier on top of his fingers with the soldier's rifle pointing toward his thumb which has a Band-Aid on it so, as the ad headline says, it is "Cushioned". It then says that "Only Band-Aid Sheer Strips have this new soft, thicker pad with a fluffy absorbent filling. Helps keep the hurt from being hurt again. Cushions as it heals". At the bottom of the box of Band-Aids there is a Band-Aid sitting there with the inner pad fluffed out and the ad says that it is "New pad cut open to show exclusive fluffy filling".
