Was I ever surprised to see "Cafiaspirina" advertised in this almanac. When I was a kid living in the Philippines in the mid-1950s, the Manila Times (an English-language paper) ran weekly comic-strip ads for that stuff. A cartoon nurse named "Nurse Cafi" would suggest Cafiaspirina to exhausted, aching Filipinos/Filipinas. Their pep would be magically restored! I never heard of the product again until now.

Years later I learned from Fred Carrillo that he'd worked on some of the Nurse Cafi strips.
