Vinolia Otto Soap Advertisement
Description
Suppliers to the White Star Line clamored to have their wares furnished onboard Titanic, eager to be associated with her fame and reputation for unparalleled luxury.
The Vinolia Otto Toilet Soap company was one such supplier, with their soaps and bath powders selected for use in Titanic's first class areas; a fact they proudly announced in a full-page advertisement in The London Illustrated News in early April 1912.
Roughly one week later Titanic sank and the advertisement was pulled from circulation after only a single printing. Today it is very rare to find an original copy, and those that do exist are highly sought after by both Titanic and advertising collectors.
