EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this intriguing image from the 1890s showcasing Jeyes Disinfectant in its various forms: fluid, powder, and bar soap. The fluid disinfectant is depicted in a glass bottle, its amber hue reflecting the warm light, while the powder form is neatly packaged in a paper pouch with a metal label. The bar soap, on the other hand, is artfully arranged on a white porcelain dish, its smooth surface gleaming. The setting of the photograph is a clean and orderly room, with white walls and a large window letting in natural light. Two nurses in crisp uniforms are present, one washing her hands in a basin with the bar soap, while the other holds a bottle of the fluid disinfectant, ready to disinfect a surface. The nurses' attire and their focused expressions convey the importance of cleanliness and hygiene during this era. The use of Jeyes Disinfectant in different forms catered to various cleaning needs, making it a versatile and essential item in households and medical settings. The fluid disinfectant was often used for surface disinfection, the powder for laundry, and the bar soap for personal hygiene. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, highlighting the significance of cleanliness and the role of disinfectants in maintaining health and well-being.
