EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a charming advertisement for Price's Olva Toilet Soap from July 1926. The ad highlights the soap's key ingredients of palm fruit oil and olive fruit oil, promising a natural solution for achieving a flawless complexion. Priced at just sixpence per tablet, this luxurious soap was a must-have toiletry item in the 1920s.
The image features a beautiful woman gazing into a mirror, her rosy cheeks and radiant skin reflecting the effectiveness of Price's Olva Toilet Soap. The subtle elegance of the woman and the timeless design of the advertisement transport us back to an era where beauty products were simple yet effective.
The use of palm fruit oil and olive fruit oil in this soap speaks to its commitment to using natural ingredients long before it became trendy. This dedication to quality is evident in every aspect of this advertisement, from the carefully chosen model to the elegant typography used to showcase the product.
Overall, Terry Parker has captured not just an advertisement but a piece of history with this photo print. It serves as a reminder that even in simpler times, people still valued self-care and beauty routines – making Price's Olva Toilet Soap an essential part of everyday life in 1926.
