Listerine’s Power of Killing Invisible Germs The advertisement that I chose was the Listerine magazine ad‚ produced in the year 1959 by the Lambert Pharmacal Company.

The company made a number of Listerine ads to prove that the product worked on people through years of testing. Although the ad is in plain black and white‚ it offers a lot of significant

They tell females not to wear makeup to avoid rape. The institutional sexual assaults can be connected to the rape culture

The most outstanding part of the documentary is when they showed what happened at night in the hospital when all
