This advertisement is notable for showing the Dionne Quintuplets, the five identical sisters born in 1934 near Corbeil, Ontario, Canada, who were among the first quintuplets known to survive infancy. Their birth made them an international sensation, and their images were used to sell everything from newspapers to household goods. Here they promote Karo syrup, a corn syrup brand, in a period when celebrity endorsements were a common advertising tool. Today the ad is often studied as an example of how the girls' fame was commercialized during their childhood.
