Leite de Magnésia Phillips | 1947

Vintage ad for Leite de Magnésia Phillips, 1947

Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia, advertised in Seleções, the Brazilian edition of Reader’s Digest, in 1947.

A curiosity: despite the similar name, the product has nothing to do with the Dutch company Philips. It is named after the American Charles Henry Phillips, who launched it in the United States in the 19th century.
