EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this advertisement for Hudsons Soap from 1888. The image, published by Illustrated London News Ltd and sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases a determined policeman holding up a notice on a fence. The sign reads, "Arrest all dirt and cleanse everything by using Hudsons Soap. REWARD!! Purity, health, and satisfaction by its regular daily use." The setting is reminiscent of the Victorian era, with the policeman, or "peeler" as they were known during this time, dressed in his traditional uniform complete with a torch or lantern for illumination in the night. The grungy fence and worn-out notice add to the authenticity of the scene, transporting us back over a century. The advertisement plays on the idea of cleanliness and hygiene, emphasizing the importance of regular use for achieving purity and satisfaction. The reward offered further entices potential customers, suggesting that the benefits of using Hudsons Soap are significant. This advertisement is a testament to the marketing strategies of the late 1800s, where posters and notices were a popular means of reaching a large audience. The use of a policeman, a symbol of authority and order, would have added credibility to the product and its claims. Overall, this image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the advertising methods and societal values of the late 1800s. It's a reminder of how far we've come in terms of hygiene and advertising, while also showcasing the timeless appeal of a good soap.
