About this work

Description

Unusual folded advertising leaflet, folded to 7 x 10 cm. It initially shows a woman bending over a tub of unwashed laundry. The first fold is lifted to show a hand giving her a box of Sunlight Soap. Once the leaflet is opened fully along the length it shows the woman standing, smiling, with the washing on the line behind her. Opened up completely, the reverse shows the woman relaxing in a rocking chair, a pot of tea, cup, milk jug and sugar basin on a table behind her. There is also a quote from Sir Charles A. Cameron recommending the soap.
