This is an original 1936 black and white print ad for Lysol Disinfectant products, specially featuring the Dionne Quintuplets. The Dionne Quintuplets were born two months premature, and were the first set of quintuplets to survive infancy. The sisters were made to be the King's property over the following eight years, wherein the government and other related officials made them into a popular tourist attraction in Ontario, Canada, netting the government a decent profit at the children's' expense.
