Colman's Tablet Starch: Dancing Clothes

1950s

Cinema advertisement for Colman's Tablet Starch.

A short cinema advertisement which features a cartoon penguin, dressed as a butler, who drops a Colman's Starch tablet into a bowl of water to 'give sparkling crispness' to a pair of handkerchiefs, a shirt and a dress, which jump out of the water and dance across the table. After settling on the slogan 'Gives sparking crispness to linens, cotton and lace', the advertisement concludes with a picture of the product box, which features the cartoon penguin.
