The cardboard attachment read "Dr Solomon's. Blows your socks off" and the black socks had Dr Solomon's stitched in white at the top.

Being part of the sales team I had plenty of freebie socks.
And they could be worn left or right and therefore never got mixed up in the washing.

I think I lost or left my last pair approx 14 years after acquiring them.

I borrow my Mum's now.
