Whoa, there's a whole history of period ads on video at http://jezebel.com/348766/let-it-bleed-a-look-back-at-period+related-advertising
nice. i was having a rant with mark harris about this: how words for crazy are womb-related: lunatic (like this lovely ad), hysteric (from the greek hystera meaning "disturbance of the womb"). i'm sure there's more, i just had to stop to prevent my head from exploding.
