# N-R-O-G Super Suds housecleaning week

Store display sheet headed 'N-R-O-G Super Suds Housecleaning Week' showing a Super Suds box, a Sani-Flush can with a woman cleaning a toilet bowl, and a No-rub floor wax can. This is a sponsor's product sheet with no war message; the technique is faint, and the closest is card-stacking: only the products and their short claims ('Quick Easy Sanitary', 'Cleans without fuss or muss') appear.
