If you look closely you will discover, that not only do we have this very rare 1930s Chinese Lever Brothers advertisement in our collection, but also an original matching soap bar, just as depicted on the poster. The company was once the largest soap producer in China and its traces remain visible in the country to this day. We have retold its 150-year long history, internationally and in the Middle Kingdom specifically across multiple posts in the past:

• Lever's Health Soap still sold here
• The China Soap Company factory built in 1923
• First Republic Of China era murals
• Gossage's Magical Soap
