So I came up with this new idea recently of archiving our vintage supermarket product box designs, specifically for all the cool vintage detergent boxes.
I haven't tested this code on all browsers and devices but it seems to work so far on the ones I have. On a computer with mouse click and hold the left button down over the package and move your mouse slowly over in all directions to see the entire box. On phones and tables use your finger and move the box around. Let me know what you all think, I have more boxes coming... 1962 Dash 1966 Tide 1956 Oxydol 1966 Cheer |

Excellent work Robert! It works great on my iPad. Reading the side labels on these boxes I remembered how people used to use laundry detergent to wash their dishes. Thanks for your work to make these detergent boxes so easy to read.

Thanks Robert! These are so cool!
A friend of mine who had a Victorian farm house in Sebastopol didn't have any modern appliances except for a TV set. He always used Tide for washing dishes and there wasn't any dish soap to be found. I never knew until now that P&G actually promoted this use for Tide. I always thought he was heeding a large old framed sign in his kitchen that read, "Economy In Purchasing Leads to Independence." |

I actually found out something about the tide laundry detergent in the link I never realized. I understood that it was used for dishes but I never heard of tide as a multi purpose cleaner before. Thanks for doing this. |

1970 Cold Power is now added to the archive collection, more coming slowly over time...
I love how it has directions on how to use Cold Power if you machine doesn't have a cold water setting. Their directions will not work with machines that have a thermostatic water valve lol. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Unimatic1140's LINK |
