What does “Toilet Soap” mean?
The term is an old-fashioned description for personal cleansing/grooming soap. It does NOT mean soap for cleaning a toilet or urinal. Pine tar soap was traditionally used for personal washing and could also be used for bathing and shaving.
This would make an interesting addition to a collection of vintage soap, advertising, drugstore, toiletry, or Americana memorabilia.
Please note: This is a vintage personal-care item and is being offered primarily as a vintage collectible/display piece.
