Bob Hope's Dental Care (1943)
Keeping in Condition
by Bob Hope
- A few simple home exercises will help you to keep fit. First, the minute you wake up, throw the covers off, jump out of bed, run to the open window. Then fill your lungs with that fresh morning air, touch your toes briskly ten times... say... this sounds interesting... I must remember to try it sometime!
- Maybe you won’t believe it, but I once posed for health magazines. Remember the ads that said “Before” and “After”? Well, I posed for one that said “Heaven forbid.” But you don’t need bulging muscles to make you look fit. Pepsodent... that cool-tasting Pepsodent... does that by making your teeth and smile look like a million.
- I’m the only guy who ever gets thin from over-eating. Every time I come home my relatives are over, eating! Of course, that wouldn’t be so bad, but they use up all my Pepsodent, too! Imagine them in front of the theaters, picketing my previews, yelling: “Remember, folks, nothing beats Irium for removing the film!”
- It’s a good idea to exercise. One good way is to grasp your tooth (brush firmly, squirt a little Pepsodent on it and brush your teeth vigorously. This develops the “saluting” muscles in your arm in case your draft board makes you class 1-A. It also gives your teeth plenty of class and makes your smile A-1.
- Above all, don’t worry. I once thought I had high blood pressure. But my doctor cured it in two minutes. He sent the nurse out of the room. Of course, I’m luckier with my dentist’s nurse. She gave me a couple of dates... you know...; Use Pepsodent twice a day... see your dentist twice a year!
How Irium in Pepsodent uncovers your bright smile
- Beware of unsightly film on your teeth. You can feel it. Others can see it. Film collects stains, makes teeth look dull —hides the true brightness of your smile.
- Film clings, is hard to remove. This film-coated mirror shows that soap, used in many dentifrices, can’t be counted on. Even fine soap leaves a film of its own.
- But look what Irium can do! The same film-coated mirror... but Irium has loosened, removed the film, floated it away, left the surface clean and bright.
- That’s how thoroughly Pepsodent with Irium removes film from teeth... safely, gently. That’s how easily it uncovers the natural, cheery brightness of your smile.

What to do with a Victory Garden
by Bob Hope
- Of course, you know what a Victory Garden is. That’s a little garden where you go out and putter around for a while, and if you can straighten your back again it’s a victory. It’s fun, though. I have a beautiful patch... on my right hand where the blister broke !
- Mother Nature is really wonderful. For instance, suppose you want carrots. Well, you just drop a seed in the ground and in no time at all up comes a rabbit. Of course, if you want a bright smile, some Pepsodent planted on your brush does wonders every time.
- After your garden has started to grow, it’s very important to use Pepsodent — the film-removing tooth paste. It puts a bright gleam on your teeth... so if the sun doesn’t come out one day, you can walk around with a big smile and shine on your vegetables.
- Watch out for pests. I’m not bothered with birds any more... since I tossed a tube of Pepsodent into their nest. Now they haven’t time to do any damage — they’re too busy brushing each other’s teeth and singing, “Oh, it floats away film with the greatest of ease!”
- Well, that’s all. Just don’t forget the tomatoes. I find the best way to remember them is to keep their phone numbers in a little book. You know, the same book you write in when you want to remember to buy Pepsodent... the only tooth paste containing Irium.
How Irium in Pepsodent uncovers brighter teeth
- Film on teeth collects stains, makes teeth look dingy — hides the true brightness of your smile.
- This film-coated mirror illustrates how smiles look when commonplace methods don’t clean film away.
- But look what Irium does to that film! It loosens and floats it away, leaves the surface clean and bright.
- That’s how Pepsodent with Irium uncovers the natural cheery brightness of your smile... safely, gently.

Short Cuts to Social Success
by Bob Hope
- There are a dozen ways to be a social success... looks, clothes, money, brains, money, personality, family, money, youth, beauty, and your own checking account. Me, I became a social success by putting on a big front... well, I didn’t exactly put it on... I took my girdle off.
- First, dress carefully to make the best impression. I never wear anything beyond ten days — I tire of things quickly, also that’s when the free trial offer is up. Of course, if you really want to have something after ten days’ trial, try Pepsodent. You’ll have a bright smile that nobody can take away from you.
- Next, always be friendly. Unless you’re leaving town anyway, never greet a stranger by saying, “Well, what d’ya hear from your Draft Board?” Instead, give him something pleasant to think about, like... “Pepsodent — and only Pepsodent — contains Irium. It’s the special film-removing tooth paste.”
- Learn to dance. I know what it is to be a wallflower. In fact, I once sat in a corner so long I had clinging ivy growing up both legs. Clinging ivy is bad enough. But film clinging to teeth is worse. It dulls your teeth and dims your smile. But Pepsodent with Irium sure gets rid of film in a hurry.
- Above all, watch your manners. For example... when you drink tea, extend your finger. This is not only polite, but in case anybody tries to steal your sugar, you can poke ‘em in the eye. Otherwise, never point... unless it’s to show how Pepsodent, the film-removing tooth paste, keeps teeth bright.

Ray Milland — The Lost Weekend (1945) 🇺🇸
Ray Milland didn’t enjoy making “The Lost Weekend.” No one would have; no one with any sensitivity, that is.
Keye Luke — Son of China (1942) 🇺🇸
Keye Luke may be the screen’s foremost Chinese actor, but he considers himself 100% American. A commercial artist before he ever saw a movie set, he entered pictures via the art department.
The Art of Photoengraving (1943) 🇺🇸
How illustrations are rendered into metal for printing. | Photoengraving may be described as a method of transforming pictures into metal for printing.
On the Set with John Huston, Directing “The Treasure of the Sierra Madre” (1947) 🇺🇸
John Huston walked slowly out of the Acapulca bar and pulled a cigarette tobacco pouch from the breast pocket of his wrinkled tweed jacket. Tall and lanky, dressed in unpressed slacks and a crushed felt hat, he looked like a youthful, gangling cowboy. His somewhat battered ex-fighter’s face wore a quietly serious expression.
Mitchell Leisen — Hollywood’s Most Colorful Director (1944) 🇺🇸
Meet Mitchell Leisen, who has bossed more famous women around than any other man in history and still retains a sense of humor.
Tribute to Ida Lupino (1940) 🇺🇸
Screenland Magazine pays tribute to upcoming actress and Luxables spokeswoman Ida Lupino.
Charles Laughton — Gentle Titan (1940) 🇺🇸
When Charles Laughton, mighty man of movie drama, talks out of turn, the result is a salty interview packed with dynamite, like this!
Abbott and Costello — Nuts to You, Bud and Lou (1941) 🇺🇸
If you’re howling at Abbott and Costello — and who isn’t? — have another laugh with the boys right now, in the funniest interview ever given by these clowns in clover.
Gregory Peck — North to Frisco (1948) 🇺🇸
As 1947 drew to a close, Gregory Peck grew a black beard, donned the frock coat Clark Gable wore in “Gone With The Wind”, and set about driving Laraine Day crazy in San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, Seattle, and Los Angeles. Greg was good at it, and Laraine went out of her mind prettily, to the applause of packed houses.
Introducing Gregory Peck (1944) 🇺🇸
For a gent who has been in Hollywood only a short time, Gregory Peck is doing all right.
The article is spiced with vintage ads of Lana Turner, Ann Sheridan and Joan Blondell.
George Sanders — Blood and Sanders (1943) 🇺🇸
George Sanders may be the only actor extant who can be called good, “bad,” and completely indifferent.
Joseph Cotten — Cotten is Just a Guy Called Joe (1943) 🇺🇸
Why did Joseph Cotten play one of the leads in “Citizen Kane,” although he had other good offers? “You just don’t say ‘no’ to Orson,” Cotten explained simply. “He’d be beating tom-toms under your window if you did.”
Rosalind Russell — It’s Smart to Be Screwy (1941) 🇺🇸
She’s the sort of girl who was the school tomboy, who at school shouted the loudest. She was the black-stockinged youngster, who, good or bad at them, played all the games with more vigor and energy than the rest of the team. She was the one who never bothered about dental braces or spinach.
Ida Lupino — Watch Out, Bette Davis (1940)! 🇺🇸
Here Comes Ida Lupino! Will Hollywood history repeat in the case of Ida Lupino? Will her performance of Bessie in “The Light That Failed” equal Bette Davis’ portrayal of Mildred in “Of Human Bondage”? You will be the judge!
Ida Lupino — Debunking the Lupino Legend (1943) 🇺🇸
At one time or another Ida Lupino has been described:
- as a dizzy blonde with an English accent who was brought over all the way from London to play “Alice in Wonderland,” until Hollywood found out that she radiated as much sweetness and light as Scarlett O’Hara or the late Ivan the Terrible;
- a more than slightly mad dame with a neurotic passion for murder, blood, ghosts;
- a girl who likes to tell fortunes by tea leaves, walks in her sleep, adores playing frustrated women, drinks her tea lying flat on her back, preferably on the floor, and is as easy to handle as a pint of molten steel.
Veronica Lake — Nothing To Hide (1941) 🇺🇸
When you see her on the screen, as you will as Sally in I Wanted Wings, you see a long tumble of wheat-blond hair, half-obscuring her right eye, a childish yet age-old swagger to slim shoulders, slight figure, the whole thing as seductive as Eve. This is the youngster, just twenty-one, that Paramount studios slipped into one of the plum roles of the year.
Preston Sturges — Geniuses Never Grow Up (1946) 🇺🇸
Can a famous Hollywood producer be a hero in his own home? Yes, it says here — when he is daring, dynamic Preston Sturges.
Alfred Hitchcock — ‘Rope’ Sets a Precedent (1948) 🇺🇸
