Shown here (with portions blanked out) is an old advertisement,as it is evident,of a particular medication that cured X. Interestingly, X moved on to enter the popular English language as a phrase used in a particular context. Moreover, a film revived X to an extent that it became popular in a way clearly different from where it started,i.e,this advertisement era.

Dropping in more hints,this film gave the world an iconic and a highly popular image.

What is X ? Additional cookies for guessing the image correct.


Answer

X is Seven Year Itch . The image talked about is the famous scene of Monroe's dress blowing up over a subway grating from a 1955 movie with the same name.
