Scott 16

Black and white 9 3/4" x 13 1/2" ad that is for ScotTissue Toilet Paper. This is a very unique ad claiming that "The ScotTissue Twins - you'll love them both" and then shows a picture of Softie and Toughie standing and sitting there, naked as could be. The ad says that the "Twin Qualities that make ScotTissue popular...SOFTNESS and TOUGHNESS". It then says that if you "Just try to choose between the charming softness of one of these Scot Tissue twins and the other's sturdy toughness. You'll find you can't. And you don't need to. Because softness and toughness are important twin qualities in toilet tissue. And softness and toughness, combined, make Luxury Texture ScotTissue an ideally balanced toilet tissue. Your whole family will appreciate ScotTissue's gentle comfort, its two-way strength that resists tearing and shredding, its extra absorbency that gives complete protection. Ask your grocer for Luxury Texture ScotTissue today!". In the lower right-hand corner of this ad there is a box that says "EXTRA! Each roll of ScotTissue has many extra yards of tissue woven in by the Scott 'Soft-Weve' process for extra strength and absorbency. Weigh it on your grocer's scales to prove this extra value. There are 1000 full-size, usuable sheets in each roll of ScotTissue, yet it costs no more because it lasts longer".

Black and white 9 1/2" x 13 1/2" ad for Scot Tissue Toilet Paper Rolls. This ad has a picture showing a mother, glowing with the expectancy of the future, holding her newborn child up above her head. The look on the child's face, to me, is something like, "Whoa, whoa, what am I doing up so high. Wait a minute. Put me down". The ad tells us that there are "1,000 Sheets To A Roll...and So Soft for his Tender Skin". Down below, they tell us that "1,000 Sheets - over 1/2 more than the 650 sheets you get from most other brands". They then tells us that "For finest quality - for outstanding value - ScotTissue is your best buy! The big 1,000-sheet roll goes further, lasts longer - gives you 1/2 more tissues than the 650 sheets you get from most other brands. And ScotTissue's important 'tender skin' qualities - sfotness, strength and absorbency - make it the idedal bathroom tissue for baby, perfect for every member of the family, too. Be sure to buy several rolls of ScotTissue next time you go shopping. See if you don't agree that it's the world's finest quality tissue - and the world's best value".

Full color 9 3/4" x 13" ad for the Lady Scott Prints. This ad starts off by saying that "Now...the gayest, easiest, thriftiest way to 'touch up' your bath Lady Scott Prints so pretty with everything - they make plain tissues seem old-fashioned". There are four pictures in this ad, each one worth describing. In the first one it says "Gay 'touch-up'...right with stripes. These are the prints Scott planned to go with stripes, and other prints, as easily as they blend with solid colors. Clue: pick up one of the stripe colors from towels or wall paper. Account it with Lady Scott Prints (Here it is in Lady Scott Green)". Next there is one that is pink and it says that there is a "Smart 'touch-up'...so new with florals. Accessorize a floral bath - or costume - with the Lady Scott print. It blends with any decor". Then we go to the "Fresh 'touch-up'...sprightly with solids. In a plain bath, use Lady Scott Prints to brighten stark white areas, and to lighten the effect of strong solid color towels". Lastly, there are the prints "And...they're priced for everyday use. This new look in tissues isn't just pretty. You get the same number of sheets and the same fine quality that you expect in soft 2-ply tissues. Lady Scott Prints are just as practical as they are pretty".
