Sanitary Underwear Box

All I have is the box. That is, the box is empty. The side of the box still shows the $.15 price tag. A friend gave this to me for my 50th birthday (not sure why). Don’t know the age of the box. Anyone want to guess? I’m thinking maybe early 1940’s? The kids sort of remind me of Windy, John and Michael from “Peter Pan.”

    Beautiful box. Excellent colors. I really love that the underwear is “sanitary”. What else should underpants be?!

    I’m voting 1930’s.

    15¢!

    This is amazing.

    Those children don’t look very happy in their sanitary undies.

    Spencer’s is still around making underwear…I think this could be late 30s…hard to tell…their hairstyles are also 40’s…..if they had to specify that these are sanitary, i hate to think of the other underwear on the market! odd too, the maltese cross theme of the label…..
