History: In the 1950s, a company called Northern Tissue developed an advertising campaign for their white and colored toilet paper. They commissoned artist Frances Hook to draw--in the soft colors of chalk pastels--a series of gently smiling children who often snuggled with something soft, such as a puppy or flowers. The series of artwork was collectively entitled "Amerian Beauty Portraits" and became so popular that Northern Tissue started selling prints from the series to the public. This print is known as "Girl with Yellow Flowers." She appeared on the packaging for the "pale gold" (yellow) toilet paper and with the following line in her advertistements: "When nature does her best for you, softness comes in colors, too." Northern Tissue also made toilet paper in white, pink "mist aqua" (blue) and green. #AmericanBeauties #AmericanBeautyPortrait
