1968 Anacin ad defines housework as "a mild form of torture"

Michael sez, “From a 1968 ad in Life: ‘Making beds, getting meals, acting as family chauffeur — having to do the same dull, tiresome work day after day — is a mild form of torture. These boring yet necessary tasks can bring on nervous tension, fatigue and what is now known as “housewife headache.”‘

“Housewife Headache”

(Thanks, Michael!)
