Lux Toilet Soap 1931

What’s amusing about this ad is that, as you can see, the ad claims that Marjorie Rambeau was 37 years old in 1931 (October is the precise month of this ad).  Well, I disagree.  I’m going to say she was actually 42 years old.  According to the Social Security Death Index she was born on July 15, 1889 (died July 1970).

So of course she doesn’t mind you knowing she’s 37 years old!  Because she isn’t!
