[The Wiser Hatter]

April 2, 1939: While the front page led with “Germany's WWII-era leader Dares Britain to Pick Fight; Chamberlain Asks Duce to Mediate; London Gives New Assurance to Poles,” inside, The Times advised its readers: “The Circus is Coming!” Referring, presumably, not to the catastrophic war looming in Europe but to the attraction on its way to Madison Square Garden from Sarasota, Fla., The Times published photos previewing the spectacle to come. Under that, girdles, hosiery and soap were advertised: “Why cheat yourself of love by getting dry, lifeless ‘middle-age’ skin?” asked Palmolive. Photo: The New York Times
